My son went to buy a 2017 ND advertised at a Kia dealer. The passenger window wasn’t working so they promised to fix it. Long story short, they ‘fixed’ it but when it was delivered he found a few window components in the centre console. Some of them we’ve worked out (via YouTube) where they go and fitted them but we’re left with these three in the photo.
Two of them are door glass stoppers but I can’t tell where they go or in what orientation etc. Also, the passenger window seems to be a little high when fully closed - is this due to the missing stoppers or is there some sort of learning procedure to set the window height?
Finally, any thoughts as to where the black plug goes please?
Cheers.

The black clip goes in the inner door card. The stoppers go near the top of the door edge on the interior side , criss cross side downwards.

If you pull the door card off (two screws so nice and easy) you’ll be able to work it out pretty quickly.

Is the window dropping when opened and raising when shut ok?

Thanks for your reply. Very helpful.
Yes, the window drops a little but as you open the door the top of the glass wobbles, it’s catching on the hood rather than just missing it.
Do the stoppers determine how far the window comes up? I.e. if I set the stoppers a tad lower will the window automatically stop moving up when it hits them?

Just to say it’s all sorted - many thanks. There were faint circular marks in the paintwork where the glass stops were originally so I used those as a guide for refitting and the window now drops clear of the hood when opening the door. Result!
