Well, the latest I've heard on this is as follows:

Quote:
adding some shims (to the other shims) will bring the whole unit back as much as you want even if its a few mill it could be enough to clear it, and stop it catching...dont go to far with it otherwise the windows and front sections etc wont fit flush..

you will need to brake the car down this far to get at them


you will see the shims. and the other bolts that hold it in place....and all will be come clear once you see it

the window needs to curl on its self...perhaps yours has lost some strength over the years and is why its pinching rather than curling or it could be due to the extra constricted play in the rag its self when its catching..........

all i can say without looking at it


Not tried it yet as it's minus 2 outside and the frost didn't go off the car today.
