As far as window felts being a poor fit. I suggest to order a new set from one of the long time forum vendors. They typically stock stuff that they use and works. Though I use Classic parts a lot as products seem good and shipping is easier on the wallet.

Not sure that grinding would help. The window don’t need to be any shorter. If it was longer buy a 1/4 inch would help. Yes the new glass is the same size as old.
