TR4/4A Door glass bayley channel clearance measurement.

Can someone post some pics similar to the attached so that I can ascertain whether my channels require adjustment where they meet the top of the door, as the glass is slightly loose.
I may have to place some packers under the channels to get the glass to fit better...front or back or both?

Not sure if these will help but here's how mine look:

But -- 'slightly loose' pretty much describes my windows (original except for outer scraper seals).

Eyeballing the gap between the two whitish guides in your photo mine is not less and probably greater than yours. My windows are also a bit loose. Photo was mud.

I just finished restoring my TR4 and the glass was a little loose until I added the outside rubber scraper and inside fuzzy pieces and now they fit fine.

Thanks Guys,
Looks like my rear channel requires some packing to bring it toward the centre of the door.
Can anyone tell me what the inside measurement should be between the nylon tops of the front and rear channels....My gap is currently 725mm.
