Hi all,
I recently converted to pop-out rear windows and ran into an unanticipated issue. The front edge of the pop-out window weatherstripping extends far enough forward that it's being "clipped" by the door window frames when I open or close the door.

Over time, the constant hitting by the door frame acts to pull the weatherstripping out of the pop-out window frame:
I owned a '72 with pop-outs, but sold it 30 years ago. My memory's a bit hazy, but I don't remember this being an issue. There's no fore/aft adjustment on the pop-out windows. Is it possible I may need to adjust the door window frames so they are a bit further forward? I'd really rather not mess with them. I'm hoping someone with factory-installed pop-outs can confirm that this is the way it is supposed to work, or if I have a problem?
Thanks for your input.
