Hi Leigh,

Always worth pointing out what kind of car it is :) From your avatar, I'm guessing S2 Exige. There are adjustment screws in the door to line the windows up, but being an S2, that's as far as my knowledge goes on that - will let one who's done it fill you in further.

They all do that, well most Exige hardtops do anyway.

There are adjustment screws inside the door, if your stuck you could try SLS http://www.scottishlotusspecialists.co. ... ences.html

No leaks here - 06 S2 Exige. I would think that a wee bit adjustment may help.

ok an update on the leaky window..

shug....done what you said and took a ganda on the SELOC site and typed in window adjust and bobs your ungle, there it was. two screws points adjust for the tilt and a bump adjust on the inside of the door cover, for the height.

so , i got cracking the other day on one door and adjusted. all i need now is a bit of rain :? to see if im successful and QED! :D
