i havent got any pictures at work, but will search when i get home.
the gap im discribing is with the tbar, the point you photographed.
so for a moment imagine theres no window and take a look at the point by the windscreen where windscreen rubber meets t-bar rubber along the door glass seal line.
Imagine that theres no rubber around the tbar, just the glass and no rubber on the windscreen side, just the mounting points.
There is a bracket on the main body of the car with a plastic guide hole in it and on the tbar there is an extending pin which fills that guide hole when the tbar glass is locked in place.
when the car is new the rubber that fills the gap between glass and car body is plump and seals beautifuly.
but over time retracts a little, but the t-bar glass stays in the same reletive position because of its plastic guide.
this allows capilary action for water between the rubber surfaces and gather at the lowest point.

.which is on the inside of the car.
this happens both at the front rubber
- to
- rubber joint and also the rear rubber-to-rubber joint.
spacing the bracket with just one washer on each of its mounting bolts will move the bracket and plastic guide further into the car by a small but significant amount.
this in effect counteracts the retraction of the rubber.
closing the gap and removing the capilary action.
so i would remove all that silicone, see what the t-bar seating height is
(it looks high at the moment) then try washers on the brackets.
second to this you will need to ensure that your door glass itself is gentle but evenly pulled up to the rubber all the way round the mating surface.
