I need to replace the door panel(previous owner claims to have one ready to give to me), and this window wasn't lifting properly-- it seemed off the track. So maybe this is a good opportunity to get several jobs taken care of at once. Only problem is, the window is more of a priority job and the other stuff isn't. Its not a daily driver so I guess it can wait a week if need be, and I can probably also buy myself a nice garbage bag replacement for the interim. - Bryan
How much is your deductible for you ins.? If you can come up with enough problems in that door/window, it may be better to let insurance take care of it. If your deductible is high, it may be best to do the repair yourself.
