Scott,
Contact adhesive from 3M available through any auto parts supplier.
Comes in a red tube and the glue is black. Specifically made for this purpose.

Go to the Mustng Monthly web site and look for technical articles.

Wash the rubbers well, you need to remove all the releasing agent before applying the glue.
Some will say to use warm soapy water, but I have had good results with acrylic thinners.
