Default 1997 Accord rear door adjustment?

I have a 97 accord & the back driver side door is out of alignment.
I can see alignment bolts on the hinges, but dont have a clue how to re-align this door. It is out at the top & has a gap that wind & rain come in. Can anyone help? I tried all of the links to online manuals, but couldn't find what I need. Thanks.

The 94 shop manual has a procedure for the front door glass. The process should be the same.

And just my two cents.....mark the hinge and body with a marker or something. This is going to require a few trial and error adjustments. At least with the marks you can always go back the square one.

There is a sticky at the top of this section: Common DIY Threads. In that there is a post about Online Shop Manuals, or something like that.

That will give you a few choices. Try the one from spoonertuner, the manual you get from there is for a two door but the idea on adjusting the front door vs the rear are about the same.

Again, highly suggest making marks on where it is before starting. Draw an outline from the hinge to the body on both the upper and lower.....again this way you can always go back to where you started.
