My window is off track or the track is broken.
why do you make your life complicated???? your car is an 07, just take it to the dealer, it should be cover under warranty!!!!!!!!!

I tried. They said since I got the window replaced some where other than the dealer, it would void warranty.

I know I can fix it myself, its just that I dont want to do more damage and make things worse...

Thx for the help. I'm pretty handy when it comes to my car. I have done simple mods b4, but I'm not that good with electronics.

Ur absolutely correct. I wont know until I try.

aside from the 2 screws (behind handle and behind the window control panel), are there any other? if not, how hard are you supposed to pull on the door panel? and there are these little openings, i assume for the hand to fit in and pull on? and just work around the bottom of the door?

The doors feel more solid. I don't have an aftermarket sound system and I listen to AM news/talk all the time and can't tell if it makes any difference in audio performance.

I put Dynamat on the floor & firewall (inside) and the entire areas behind the rear seats. What a difference it made to eliminate road noise. i have not done the doors or roof and i'm impressed 2000 ES300

Quick question I just got my windows tinted and my passenger door had a rattle so he took the panel off again and put the clip back in but now there's another rattle so my question is are those clips very durable and are weak now or is he just an idiot and in a hurry? In help would be very appreciated
