Need help with window, passenger side, Convertible

[GT_Indy]

The driver side is fine, the driver door window meets the driver rear passenger window rubber just fine. They go up and down normally.

The passenger side, the driver window overlaps onto the metal the rubber is attached to to much.

Is there a way to re-adjust the window to straighten it, the top of the window is too far towards the rear of the car, I feel the tracks are crooked or something.

It binds if the rear window is up before the front window on the passenger side, I had to open the door to help.

The rear window, the top of it is a little too far towards the front of the car, I want to adjust it back a little, it needs to be seated in the rubber for the convertible top.

TRhe car was in a sideswipe accident a few owners back about 10 years ago, I believe it was the passenger side that was damaged and fixed, but the window track were not fixed properly.

the door panel has to be opened and the condition of the window track and window has to be checked to see if any parts are broken or an adjustment can solve the problem

Convertibe is diffferent than my coupe which has full window frames and plastic guides that snap on in holes drilled into the glass that ride in the front and rear channels in the door. Both are adjustable with slotted holes if I remember correctly. But in my coupe , I only had to move the front channel to get in place again. It mainly is the 3 plastic guides that hold my glass in alignment in the 2 channels

Go to "Nalley Buick GMC" parts and go to the body section to see the different window diagrams for vert and coupe models.

There are pics in my album to show you my window guides when I had to change them.

Ok, so I should be able to correct this by adjusting number 9 from that chart?
I do not see a front track in the chart, I assume one exists.

Yah, being a convertible, no upper tracks, only what is inside the door to keep the window correct.

The rigth rear passenger window is also a little off, when rolled all the way up, the top of it is too close to the front of the car, needs move towards the rear a little.
Can that be fixed by opening the interior panel?

Dont know if there is a front track or not, not sure by the diagram , but the rear one (9) does.

Heres a pic of the quarter window diagram for convertibles .................

Awesome thanks.

I'm going to see about adjusting the tracks, Hopefully thats all it needs.

Took me a while to get to it, but after a few hours of adjusting, the windows are now fixed.
Both were moved closer to the door jam and tilted towards it so I had to carefully move the door window forward and tilt it forward, and then move the RR passenger window backward and tilt it backward.

Windows are a little stiff but I checked it and nothing is binding, it just seems to move slow, planning to lube/grease the moving parts.

Good deal ,I know it is a pain just to get the panel off since there is alot of things to disconnect or take off...........typical of later GM cars............
