Default Replacing Rubber Mouldings. HELP!

So when i bought the car the rubber mouldings or trim around the rocker panels of the car were removed and left in the truck.. so i read somewhere they are hard to keep straight so i taped them straight, my question is..
What kind of glue or double sided tape can i use to stick them back on..?

Also how do i remove the thick layer of glue gunky substance left behind from them?

Thanks in advance.

for an 82 f150?

if for a fox, yeah they have a metal backing and if removed the rubber molding will shrink and be hard to put it back on clean, 3M double sided tape is used I believe

first rip the metal backing off to which the 3mm was originally affixed to and they will lay flat again.
