I see what you mean. That guide sticks down too far, catching the glass channel. I think bending it will defeat the purpose unless you can get it to still rub against the glass as it should. The stock part is much shorter and the fuzzy part clears the glass channel. The right ones are getting hard to find. I found some on Fleabay but they are getting stupid expensive. Without them, you get the dreaded F-body door glass rattles.
