Sunroof Noise

Getting wind noise from my '03 sunroof. Have tried adding shims to the rear to make it more flush with the roof but noise is still there. I do not have the smoked wind deflector. Is there any way to tighten up the seal between the glass and the roof?

Have you tried adding shims to the front of the roof? Usually the problem is fixed by putting the shims in the back, but since you don't have the wind deflector, it couldn't hurt to try the front.

Haven't tried shims at front of roof, but the front is already nicely flush with the roofline. I'm thinking of keeping my sound level meter in the car and running it around the inside of the sunroof to possibly pinpoint the source of the noise.
