Default Convertible top problems

Ok so my driver side door is leaking because there isnt a secure fit between the top rubber piece and the window. There is at least a good half inch space between the rubber and window. I already replaced the rubber piece on the covertible. Any ideas ??? I have pictures if you would like to see what im talking about. This is a big problem as i live in south florida and it is now raining almost everyday.

window guides may be broken or gone causing the window not to go up in the manner it should to seat against weatherstripping properly

the window is going all the way up. Thinking it might have been the window awhile ago i replaced the door and the same thing happens. Could i maybe just have recieved a bad part from late model resto? Because the passenger door sits against the rubber and it doesnt leak. Does the window sit against the rubber or does it go up into it?
