Hey, Larry, nice job!
I also had a gap between the vent glass and vertical channel when it closed, except I set both the window in the frames at the same time. Only found the 1/4" gap after the fact. :mad: After doing some serious thinking, I came up with a simple and (if I may say so myself) rather elegant solution:
You know that bladed strip of rubber that goes in a slot at the top of the door panel, which presses against the outside of the window and acts sorta like a squeegie when you roll the window down? If you cut it in half, it's precisely the length of the flat edge of the vent glass. Remove the riveted rubber seal from the vertical post and glue the blade in it's place. No gap, no leak, no wind noise; and I didn't have to pull the vent windows out of the frames and start over. So far, nobody has even noticed that it's not correct, although I have gotten kudos on the tight seal from passengers.
Of course, if you're aiming for a perfect resto, you'll probably want to pull the glass and start again. I was more concerned with keeping the rain out of my face.
