Sunroof re-installation questions

Well...sunroof is actually re-installed but....I took everything apart to remove the headliner fabric as I am going to have a new headliner installed. Trying to do as much prepwork myself to save a few $$.
Anyway....I got everything back together. Sunroof opens and closes as it should...everything is straight. When closed it is hitting the stops on the front.
But...I washed the car quickly after putting everything back together and to my dismay...the sunroof is leaking like a sieve. It will withstand a few seconds of water but will commence to leaking shortly after. Was not leaking before.
I put some washers on the screws that hold the lid on thinking that it would equal the effect of the fabric(when in place) and draw the lid closer to the body when closed. This did not help. I then adjusted the screws on the bottom of the white plastic ramp like things that sit beside the rail thinking this would push the roof up a bit when it closed. (this may have worked but can't tell now because I've run out of sunlight for the day).
I am fairly certain I put everything back together correctly but could I have gotten it misaligned?
I'm going to try and locate a new sunroof weather seal and see if that will help. Rain is coming Wednesday!
Any thoughts or suggestions? Help!
Thanks,
Todd
