try the lateral raise his way, make sure you can see your rear delt flex in front of mirror.

Have you tried them while leaning away from a piece of equipment? Hanging on with they other hand? Focus on the peak contraction of the delt. If you are trap dominant, you could pre exhaust the delt.. with presses. I know that's not the answer you wanted lol, but any time I've ever had a muscle overpowering another I have used pre exhaustion for several weeks to bring the weaker muscle up to par.
Your arms should be nearly but not quite straight, and your thumbs should point forward and slightly down, as though you are pouring a bottle of beer onto the ground. As you raise your arms you should bring them slightly to the front of your body, not perfectly straight to the sides, but just a little in front of your head so your pinkies line up with your ears. Raise the weight and pause briefly at the top. You should be able to do them with 20 to 30 lbs if you have some real training experience, and maybe 10 to 15 lbs if you are not well conditioned. If you do them like this I guarantee you'll feel them in your side delts.
Bump ^^^
I was going to say the same thing !
Another option which I have at my gym , maybe u do as well , a Lateral Raise machine !!!
U can do lateral raises standing up and it basically fixes ur form so u don't have to work quite so hard at it. There's also one where u can sit down and to side lateral raises !!!
