I think mine are that brand as well, I have electric windows and it does slow down as they get to the top but they close fully. You could sliding something in the window channel to loosen the seal a fraction and the same at the top where the window closes, the ones I got for my car came with a spreader tool to widen the gap to ease window movement.

hey i have the climair ones from ford £45 quid for the pair, they are a little tight at the top but nothing like tight enough to break window winders! the misses also has the same brand on her fiesta metal with no problems, maybe the ones from ebay are a little thicker in the seal area than the ford ones?

Surprised they didn't snap to be honest it's a job getting them fitted with the window let alone pulling them out with it shut and the double sided tape on them too
