It seems to me that just a few tweaks and a bit more curvature would yield an acceptable fit, with some adjustments to the track, (and no cutting)?[This message has been edited by jscott1 (edited 08-21-2008).]

I assume you are talking about tweeks to the glass? There is no way without widening the roof that you can make these fit without cutting into the door, sorry. I have my door apart and can get some pictures. It is in a different town though so give me a week.

Yes, I mean have new glass made with just a bit more curvature and perhaps a slightly different shape on the leading and trailing edge. Just enough such that the glass can have an acceptable fit without cutting anything. I understand that is not possible with the current shape of the window and vehicle.
But I am afraid to park my car anywhere unattended when someone can just pull back the "window" and reach inside. I NEED GLASS!

I am willing to bet that they will fit with a little work to the door. I just happen to have looked over a Mike N. glass chop this weekend and I still have to say his chop is hands down the best I have seen. I have a feeling in the near future that a chop done by " The Other Guy" will be getting nice glass windows and also will be getting the Pass side part of the chop corrected beings its doesnt match the other side. Glass is the only way to go so its time others stepped up and spent the money and got away from plastic windows that you have to hold when closing.
