Hi all. I am a first time vette owner. I bought a 1988 about a month ago. I like the car a lot. I had to replace most of the weatherstripping on the car and now I am having a problem with the side windows. The top of the glasses seem to be leaned in too much at the top. The windows won't roll up all the way with the new weatherstrips. . I can't seem to find the right bolts to adjust the top in and out. Any detailes help will be most appreciated. Thanks.

The roll up problem is most likely because of the new rubber...try a little armor all, or similar on them...I heard someone once say they used WD-40 even...a little lube should solve the problem

A little lube always seems to help.:rofl:

There are bolts on the top of the inner door frame that move the window regulator in and out. You can see slotted holes that they bolt through. I have moved my windows up,down from front to back and even adjusted the stops to lower the height. The preferred lube for your weather strip is dielectric compound. It's available at most parts stores...,p.s. moving the top of the regulator in will move the top of the window out when it's rolled up.
