Manual window problem ruining tint My driver side hand-crank window is getting hard to roll up/down. So much so it is messing up my tint. What is the best way to figure out what exactly is wrong? Also what is the best way to get the door panel off to see if I can see the problem.

dont know what the prob is, but just take the screws in the door handle top/and bottom and screw in the the handle cover....once all the screws are out, work the door handle cover out...and pry from the bottom and pull.
More than likely when the tint was put on it was secured good enough at the bottom and it is catching a lip everytime i goes up and down I took my door panels off when they put the tint on a ran a piece of clear tape along the bottom of the tint so it wouldnt be put in a bind

It's not peeling the tint off, it tearing little holes in it is a vertical line on the window. And the difficulty rolling it up or down seems to be intermittent. Sometimes it is really hard to get it to go, other times it glides just like it should. I don't understand what the problem is.
ya what he said.... i think youll find that you felt window pads are probably warn down and scratching the glass. The pads are little adjustable arms that put pressure against the glass to make sure it has a good seal with the outside door window weather stripping. mine is doing the same thing and im guessing thats what it is. i could be wrong
