Hey guys, How do I access these? I have the door panel off, the glass covers some of the screws. I also have new door hinges, any tips?
 
Number 11 for the bottom stop. Mark it before loosening it so you can get it back to proper alignment without fighting it.

Thanks guys. I will have a look tonight. Great pic ELCAM. I found this video for glass adjustment. I circled one of the bolts in RED. On my car, there is no slot at this location, just a bolt. ???

Pretty sure the difference is a 1978 thing, they weren't quite done perfecting the design yet.
Okay sounds good. I did reach in there and it is attached to the bracket.

So Ive got the window adjusted. Had to start with door hinge adjustment. My new outer sweep is on. In order for the widow to make contact with the sweep i have the top felt guides pushing against the window. However when i roll the window down it’s LOUD. The noise is from the guides. If i back it off the noise quiets down however the window no longer makes contact with the outer sweep. Does this sound right? Is the guide just worn out?
