New division bar felt torn up by window metal corner.

I had a similar problem after replacing the division bar seal/felt. The channel that holds the glass had a sharp burr on the end of it that for some reason never snagged the original seal. I carefully filed the channel with a file I ground smooth along one edge so it would not nick the glass. Problem solved.

It looks like the new felt isn't seated all the way in ? did you clean the old felt all the way out before installing the new felt ?

You are right it isn't fully seated with the adhesive I used for whatever reason that may be part of the problem. I wouldn't think it would be interfering with the riveting. I took some photos of the glass and I think the glass may have shifted back. I looked at the passenger side window and it looks more even how you were saying. Is there a way to adjust the glass on the channel? Also good way to hold the felt tight while it dries?

I tried to find the thread we had going about that problem, but couldn’t find it. As you likely remember mine was the same. I had to trim 1/2” off the edges of the bottom window sash on mine.

By sash do you mean the metal channel the window sits in?

Yep that’s exactly what I’m talking about. There’s a thread where fbks and I both went thru it.

Thank you for the link! Was getting very frustrated. Two steps forward one step back.
