When I rebuilt my roadster the very bottom of the 1/4-light had a bolt that
fitted in a slot at the bottom of the door, i.e. you could adjust the depth
of 'engagement' of 1/4-light to windscreen seal, and this is critical for
avoiding the 'crack of doom'. I would expect the GT to have the same
adjustment, can't recall if it was on the rear channel also.
