    electric windows

    Looking for help adjusting the electric windows. I seem to have a gap at the top of the window and rubber molding.

    Do you mean the gap between the window and the hard top window frame, or is there a gap between the window and the felt gasket (can't see one in your pics)?

    It took a long frustrating while to get my windows close (and they don't look as close as yours). I did try installing the window track with the supplied hardware 'backwards', and in my case it closed up the gaps some.

    The biggest problem I found was caused by the curve of the window glass, which makes it very hard to get good alignment at both extremes of travel. So I focused on getting the alignment as good as possible when the window was closed, and I limited the downward travel a bit to keep the window glass aligned/pressed up against the felt gasket.
