	Have you tried lowering the front corner of the window? If you lower that you might be able to raise the back corner a little more. Also if a brand new seal I know that mine was not exactly factory correct and had some bulging in areas where the original didn't and getting a perfect seal was not possible.

	there are adjustments for the up stops front and rear and adjustments on the plastic guides on the center pole that allow for tilt in and out and the bolts on the ends of the pole allow for some front to rear glass adjustments also make sure your hinge bushings are good or that can cause sealing issues at the roof seal... also the striker post bushing too
