i have a 94 gt convt, i just bought a used glass off a 98 mustang, installed new glass and i was not able to get the window flushed against the convt top, there was a gap from the 1/4 window to the top, was a small gap but water can enter, i adjusted the window, regulator and still no difference..

my question is : has anyone ever ran into this problem? are 94-98 windows the same? it was the passenger side


thanks :SNSign:

this may seem like a dumb question, but was the 98 window glass from a convertible?

also, can you pull the window up, manually, any farther than it already is?

yes it came off a convt. i lifted the window higher, but it looks like water would get in from the door, the rubber is barely hugging the front window

I know the 94-95 'vert rear windows come up in a strange fashion- they go straight up for the first 3/4 of the way, then at the very end they seem to move forward instead of up. I imagine this is due to the shape of the window, not the mechanism moving it, but I say that to say: I'd check to see if you can slide it up/forward a little more, the rear windows doesn't seal with the fronts until the very end, so it sounds like it just needs to move forward a little more. I'm not sure how the rears mounts to the motor, but on the front windows there are two or three mounting points- if the rears are the same perhaps you just need to slide the rear of the window up on the mount a little?

Good luck!
