I have only just bought the car so excuse the ignorance here, but the there is about 1cm gap (on both sides) between the top of the glass and the groove in the hood. The hood seems to fit fine, the car has not had any shunts, the window glass lines up with the top of the window frame when the windows are up. I have had a couple of other convertables before and when you shut the door the windows then go up further to make the seal (and when you open the door the windows drop before the door opens) - does this happen on TVRs - if so then I guess to mechanism may have failed (any advice ?). If TVRs do not do this then I guess iam am left with trying to adjust the glass height. I have hear that there is an adjuster screw under the window seals - firstly I can't find a way to see past the seal, I have felt underneath (jamming a finger down) and still can't definate locate a screw - any tips or ideas , I can feel something but it seems to be at an angle - is the screw on the end of this - if so is it flat head or Philips - any advice would be much appreciated as I daren't take the cart far at t moment just in case it tips down while i'm on the move .
Cheers
Simon

But 10mm seems a lot for it to be out if everything is fitting right
