Default 2001 Convertible rear windows problem

When I close the rear windwos the one on the drivers side does not close properly. I have to pull-up the last 5 millimeters by hand.

The window also is a little loose and can be moved/shaked a bit.
I assume some screws are not tightened?

I already took away the rear seats and side-covers plus speaker but can not see much. Windows goes down behind the motor.

Do I have to start through the rear wheel archer or through the trunk?

Any help is appreciated - Daniel

I also had such symptoms
In my cas solution was to closing the roof at the lowered windows.

There was a write-up somewhere done by a guy that needed to replace the quarter window regulator and it had some photos--might be in the diy/faq section.

I believe there are 2 adjusting screws available for the quarter window. I had been curious as to whether these can be seen or accessed just by removing the top casing piece versus having to remove the rear seat and interior trim. If you figure out, let us know. Also take a bunch of pictures to post if you happen to think about it.
