Default Sidecurtain to windshield fit??

I would appreciate opinions/suggestions from anyone with sidecurtians on thie ERA. I'm fitting my windshield today and starting out one sidecurtain leaned in a lot more than the other. I did a little tweaking on the driver side to bring it in a little, but it's still not leaning in as much as the passenger side. I'm at the point now that I think the windshield angle is set OK with about 1/4 inch clearance to the sidecurtain when closed.

To even things up I need to either lean the passenger one out a little or lean the driver side in a little. If anyone can think of a reason to go one way or the other or offer any other suggestions before I drill the escutchin plates and cinch it down, I would appreciate it.

I'm not sure it's that critical overall - this is obviously not a tightly sealed area.

This is the pass side:





Driver side - doesn't lean in as much:





All comments, observations, suggestions welcome.

Thanks

Dan
