I will keep you posted on the outcome for my window rebuild and adjustment.
    Amazing they never corrected that. I almost destroyed mine and had to drill it out and fix with a large pop rivet. Definitly check them out by hand. I drove the last screw in with electric and it wasted the threads. If it still doesnt line up I'd suggest drilling the bracket hole larger or elongating with a dremel.

    Thats just not true. I called LMR when I did my rear quarter windows and gave them detailed feedback, including the quarter window billets have their bolt hole pattern off about a 1/16 of an inch. That I had to drill mine out and repair with a pop rivet. I also told them that the quarter window adjustment procedure CANNOT be completed properly without the Up-stop bumper which they don't show or mention in their video, but is visible on photos of a customers posting on their page.

    None of the Resto manufacturers have attempted repro that bumper. Yet I was able to make one using a bumper stop for a classic Mustang (64-69) and trim it with a razor blade until it fit.

    Makes sense. I discussed this with Matt at NPD when I did mine 2 years ago and he told me he was looking for an original so used a template to make repros from. Funny, I just did a Google search and found this thread on this site and this guy did exactly what I did. It works, but now that I know theres a good repro I will order a pair and keep them in my garage for future use.
