Re: Wobbly Windows (side)
Well done Woodyellow and thanks itchfeet for the tip about the wobbly window tip. Those bits are not covered in the Bentley manual. I took the panel off the door yesterday. The large piece of foam was still in place. I stuck a small piece of foam where the pad had been as suggested - as mine had disappeared. I no longer have a wobbly window. Cheers guys!

Ahh, I wonder if I could reduce the wobble if I remove the felt pads and stick something thicker in its place?
Why would the glass be anything other than half full?

No way José, it's got to look stock or at the very least an improvement! Form before function
