Default 1985 Corvette window felts question.

Before I take the door apart again, can the outer window felt on the end near the outside door handle be adjusted to push the window in a little bit so it lines up with the top weatherstripping a little better, without taking the glass out?

Probably just a "Yes" or "No" answer will suffice.

Thanks.

It depends on the condition of the felts. If they are worn then even if you slide them all the way out they still will not give you the adjustment you are looking for. It would be better to replace them. I think a set of 2 is around $15.That being said, yes there are adjustable.

Well then, that made me think of another question. Why would the passenger window want to go up an inch higher than the driver's side?
