If I remember correctly, the regulator has to go in first. The the window goes in, sliding from "inside" the car, not straight down from the outside.
You removed the positioning gliders up at the top?

That piece of glass has been sitting apart for a while. It's been a while since I had a door apart, but I seem to remember that it worked better when curling the window in from the inside.
