Default Passenger Window Problem

Have a 2000 coupe w/both tops. Passenger window does not seal to the weatherstripe properly on either top (glass top is better than solid top). Like to keep the solid top on because I drive the car, but the wind noise is a problem at highway speed, and there is a small amount of leak if its hard rain. Is there any adjustment? I've taken it to a couple of local body shops and they both indicated they really didn't want to mess with it because it often makes the problem worse. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem with mine. I talked to a local guy (Corvettes & Classics - Greer, SC), and he said that he could fix it by adjusting the tracks on the glass inside the door. Only about 2 hrs labor ($100-150). Does that sound reasonable to anyone?

It's easy. Do it yourself. I tightened up the window on my Z. Much less than 2 hours and it should do the trick.

Here ya go:
