The channel I am using is from the previous (12 years ago) owner, but is in great condition, so its a mystery. I assembled the drivers side and put it in with flat-headed metal screws, which worked good. But my problem still exists, the metal window track is rubbing against the division bar in the lower 4" and cuts into the felt. When the glass is about halfway down, it rather "shifts" forward and the track contacts the felt division bar. This happens as soon as you touch the window crank. I was hoping correctly installing the rear channel would keep the glass tight and stop this from happening.
