    For the vapor barrier - go to BigLots or some other dollar-type store and buy a clear shower curtain. Lay it over the old lines and cut the pattern first, then buy some black interior trim adhesive and apply it over the old lines. Make sure you get all of the original off first and you have to make a couple of holes for linkages and stuff. Looks like original.

    sounds like a much better fix than my 'trash bag' approach.

    Or if you're the decorator type just find a nice animal print or your favorite cartoon character...

    cold weather

    Since it has gotten cold recently here in Colorado I have noticed my windows go up very slow. Way to much stress on the motor. The glass does stay aligned with the bearing but more needs to be done. To much friction in cold weather. Going to meetup with Jake hopefully next week and work on both our windows, maybe add some bungee cords....
