9.2.01.8 - Door Glass Adjustment
The door glass can be adjusted in three planes. Lateral, Up and Down, and Front to Rear. It is advisable however
to avoid forward and rearward adjustment if possible, as this will affect the height and overall position of the glass
relative to the seals. Use this adjustment only to correct serious misalignment.
Lateral Adjustment
Remove the door trim pad. Partially lower the window to allow access to the glass channel mounting bracket (Fig
6-A). Slacken off the four nuts to allow lateral adjustment. Move the glass to the desired position and tighten the
nuts. Close the window and recheck the alignment. Repeat the adjustment until the optimum alignment is achieved.
Refit the door trim pad.
Upward Adjustment
Remove the door trim pad. Slacken off the regulator locknut (Fig 6-B). With the door closed, operate the window
to the fully closed position and tighten the locknut. Refit the door trim panel.
Front to Rear Adjustment
Remove the door trim pad. Partially lower the window to allow access to the glass channel mounting bracket (Fig
6C). Slacken the four screws to allow glass movement. Move theglass to the required position and tighten the screws.
Close the window and recheck the alignment. Repeat the adjustment as necessary until the optimum front to rear
alignment is achieved. Refit the door trim pad.
