I'm noticing quite a deep flange on the front edge of the rear window (left side) where I had to build up the cabin cover to fit the door. The choice is to shim it (with washers per Vans) or lay in a layer or two of glass on the flange before installing the window. The excess depth is about 3/16" (about a three washer stack would be needed). Suggestions? Better ideas? Go with the washers and hope to fill the channel with adhesive? I plan to use the Lord adhesive.

I shimmed mine with small pieces of cured fiberglass. I only had one place that needed shimming. Either method should work.
