I also think the windows do a much better job of sealing to the rubber gaskets that way as well. Quote Selected

Which she does anyway no matter how many times you tell her to the contrary. "There is technology in this door woman! It's called, not being a 20-year old door!" Quote Selected

VW Eos, Passat CC and Beetle do this as well. The idea is that the windows don't just close ONTO the weather stripping they close INTO the stripping like a full framed door decreasing wind noise at speed. Quote Selected
Fords Ideas. Reply #8 – December 05, 2010, 06:06:12 PM I actually have to do that on the vert, or the glass doesn't seal right when the door is closed...I wonder if I can make this automatic when the door opens... Quote Selected
