I'm trying to fix up my side windows. Both rear windows have a lot of play when they are wound to the half way up position. By "play" I mean the windows rotate about 30 degrees around their forward bottom corners. Should the windows have so much play at this point? Do these windows rely on the rubber seals under the roof edging to guide them into the proper final position? If so, I will have to hurry up and replace them before I do more work on the winders! Cheers ... Greg
The rear windows have a plate with two plastic grommet that guide the window up and down. They should be pretty much fixed.
I have replace mine. It's not easy but well worth it. Somebody else on the forum told me to go out and buy shower door rollers, the ball bearing type.
You drill out the log and bolt in the rollers, they are a perfect fit in the track. I put new grease in the track and they work a treat.

its a painful process involving a lot of fidling. i cant remember the exact order of how to take the bits out .
one bit of advice i can give you is to make sure you mark the location of all the 'locating nuts'(i dont know what they are called but you will know them when you see them) on the car by tracing or scoring around them. these help make sure that the window winds up into the correct final postion and if you dont mark them, you will have to work them out from scratch.
