Well the glass windows don’t have to be trained to fit once in place they fit the same every time like the OEM ones before the car was chopped. Unless your door tracks and weather strips are worn out then they might flop around some. I'm cheap and used old door weather striping so one side that the original glass did not push down fits perfect and one side I need to fill in with some RTV to fluff the weather striping back out. Other than that I'm happy.
I’m going to do a chop on an 88 coupe when the new windows get in and if the owner will let me I will post doing a chop around the windows. This should be a cool chop because it is a non-sunroof car and I plan to make the roof wider so the window tracks will not have to be altered as mine. I am not in the chopping business just helping a friend out and he I when I need it
