Felt and probably outside window trim, and also look at the window channel "grip" stuff dry rots.., also felt for vent window...You replace that it will be tighter...I just replaced all this stuff on both my doors..

I agree with BLK63Vette. I had a lot of side playon my passenger window. I replace the rear run felt and installed a new felt track on the vent window. I originally thought that there must be more wrong with the window in order to have as much play as it had. However, the new weather stripping corrected the problem.
