Ya know, it never occurred to me to just duct tape some cardboard into the opening. I see that around here every once in awhile. Or for a repair with sound effects... a tattered garbage bag flapping in the wind.

I went ahead and added 1/8" material around the perimeter of the latch mounting plate and now have the clearance I need to install the rigid channel without hosing up the window glass travel. It's tacked in place for now while I turn my attention to the striker plate. More on that later.
