Before I pull my door cards to get inside my doors, thought I'd ask the question. Can I adjust the vent window bracket (chrome part) up to close this gap without pulling everything apart? Unfortunately, Ian Karr's video came out after I had installed my doors. He shows how to loosen the nuts before installing the vent glass back into the track/new seal, but this was before installing it into the door. Thanks!

Also, not super-happy with my Targa seal install. Any advice on getting this right?

Ok, thanks for all the replies. Door gaps are good, have a brand new vapor barrier installed, and most of what's inside the door has been restored. I think the bolts (arrowed) in this photo, looking up into the door, need to be loosened to allow the vent glass slide a few mm down. This will alleviate the pressure on the top piece, and allow the chrome vertical piece to come up and forward just a bit. After fiddling with things for a few minutes, I think I need to pull the entire assembly up, remove the vent glass and reinstall with soapy water to get everything to slide better. It would also allow me to make sure this horizontal piece can move in its track.
