30+ years ago, when I made the first glass replacement quarter windows,
the tempered glass was condiderably thicker than the Acrylic OEM
version. I haven't measured Rick's glass replacements, but I installed
his Acrylic windows earlier this year, using the soft rubber he sells.
In addition to the thin electrical tape for glass, you might also use
vinyl pipe wrap which is thicker, to help fill the channel gap. Any of
these fillers will require a careful hand with an Exacto knife to trim
them back to the perimeter channel.
