Hi Jin,
There were supplied undrilled and longer than required.
There have been at least 3 variations of where the hocky stick meets the
glass and soft top.
The last and most leak free version has the glass going through a slot cut
in the end of the hockey stick and bedding into the grooved rubber seal on
the door pillar.
Be careful if you do this as the hockey stick can crack between the CSK
screw hole and the end of the slot.
Best thing is to bond a small piece of stainless steel sheet inside the
hockey stick with filler to spread the load, redrill the hole through that
as well.
Getting the door insides done on the 2+2 was the worst job on the kit, i
actually gave up on my quantum build for 6 months or more after i spent
several weekends trying to get everything to line up.
Best advice is make everything adjustable that you can, and expect to have
to slot the holes for the lower guide fixings a lot on the door inner
panels.
When i finished moving everything around i scribed round the big washers on
the guide fixings onto the door inner panel, then filled in all the slots
i'd made with fibreglass filler.
Then line the washer up onto the scribe marks and redrill just the one hole
required.
Jim

Subject: [Quantum Owners] not so jolly "hockey sticks"
Hi guys
Quick question (ish),
Were the front "hockey sticks" glass surrounds sections supplied from
Quantum undrilled for the M4 csk screw that secures them to the
vertical glass guide?
Basically the one on my driver’s side is 15mm further forwards than
the passenger side resulting in the glass sitting lower at the front
edge in relation to the passenger side which has lead to some funny
looking creases in the soft top fabric trying to close the gap - and
deep breath
cheers for any info, i just want to eliminate any other potential
factors as to why these 2 vertical supports are out of line other than
the original builder just drilling the holes wrong
Cheers
