Got the new cables installed and everything buttoned up but when closing the top,it closes nicely except the back of it doesn’t rise all the way up flush with the roof line. Is there an adjustment that can raise it up the rest of the way

As I mentioned in my old sunroof thread at https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/sunroof-howto-wanted.18413/ , the rear rises when the little plastic triangle on the panel hits the big round dowel in the track on the car. You are probably missing the triangles (Part #10 in the W&N image below). I have recently had a similar conversation with another member. I think these are NLA but might be available from other manufacturers (Volvo, Porsche, etc) who also used Golde sunroofs. If you can't find them I think we could 3D print some with little difficulty. They are not visible so the replacement just needs to be functional.

The "dowel" it rides up upon:
