Rear Hatch Glass Trim Side Pieces Too Long - Enlarge Corner Notches

Body/InteriorbeginnerOP Confirmed
Problem

After installing replacement rear hatch glass trim pieces, the side trims are approximately 1/4 inch too long and do not line up flush with the rear trim piece. Additionally, there is a ~1cm gap at the top of the trim which appears normal but raises water intrusion concerns.

Side trim pieces are about 1/4 inch too long and do not align with rear trimGap of approximately 1cm at the top of the rear glass trimConcern about water getting trapped behind trim and causing rust
Root Cause

The notches in the top corner trim pieces where the side trims slide in are not large enough to allow the side pieces to seat fully, preventing proper alignment.
