Hi Chuck,
The distance I measured at the top of the clip was from the leading edge of the clip to the rear window opening itself.
I can't imagine having that much less material than you have. Did you measure from the front edge of the clip to the in-set (reveal?) where the rear window screws to the body?
If it weren't for the fact that these cars where not symmetrical to begin with - compromise would not be an option. I'll find the lesser of the evils in the name of esthetics.
Thanks for your reply - Your logic is good!

As I measure further and take stock in what might have happened to the original 1008 car that this mold was reported to be taken from, I found more clues that the left side of the car is shorter than the right side.
The door on the left is also cut shorter than the one on the right by 1/4".
Left Door at 1-7/8"
Right door at 2-1/8"
