This is a VERY good suggestion, and I'm pleased that you mentioned it.

I've been doing this for nearly 35 years. The hard part is getting passengers to do it also. ;-)

Would it be possible to do something to the mechanism that actually makes the window stop there? Some kind of adjustment, and I dont think it would "ruin" an original car :-)
