Gap between my window and weatherstripping

I know I ask a lot of stupid questions on here but as a first time owner I am just worried about things. Does anyone know why or how my passenger side window has a gap between the window and the weather stripping? The doors are not original could that be a possiblity? The only thing is that I just noticed it and I have owned the car for about a year and I never noticed it until recently. I am going to put the window down and see if it is off track. Could this be all that is wrong with it? Well thanks for putting up with my questions.

You might just need to adjust the stop height. Check the tech board.

when you take off the door panels you will see a stop where the window is limited, you can adjust the window in just about any direction...

Mine fit perfect, and I still get a single drip of water every time I wash it from the window seal (NOT FROM THE T-top) It happens about half way up the A-Pillar on the passenger side... Might actually be a manufacturing defect... never washed my second Formie... (its a future project)
