Maybe I can post a photo to explain this better, but the side glass doesn't go high enough to seal to the rubber. I have new seals rom 914 Rubber, but the glass doesn't go high enough to fit right. I know I can adjust the window to raise higher, but then it will go above the rubber stop on top of the crome guide that holds in the wing glass. The chrome trip is held in place by a bolt in the base of the door and another inside the door. It doesn't adjust up and down. Tell me where I have this adjustment out of wack. Could it be that the rubber seal needs to be thicker. Should I have a filler between the seal and the targa top?

If it is leaning towards the interior, the seals are on the wrong side. Swap them. It doesn't look like they will still match, but you should then be able to adjust the window up some more using the adjustment screw in the door.
