[s-cars] Help: driver side window wind noise...

[chris chambers]

Yes that's how old time body men would do it on cars before the
advent of door bars, etc. which left doors that were more flexible.

Personally I think our doors are too strong for that to work, but who
knows.

Has anybody succesfully adjusted a UrS4 door with this technique?
