    I have no clue what I'm looking at. Too zoomed in to get perspective.

    Yeah, if you're looking for comments. Some context will help. I don't know what I am looking at either.

    I believe the OP is trying to describe how he stopped or reduced a wind noise problem in the area of the vent window.

    looks to me like the driver side window. I suspect he was getting wind noise so rolling up a towel and throwing it in the corner silences it make the car quieter, more Lexus-like. Not a bad idea because you always need a towel. HAPPY TOWEL DAY!!!!


    5/25 is towel day.... for Douglas Adams.... no? Okay I'll go back to my corner now.....

    You may want to rotate the photos 90° to the right.

    The photo is of the driver's side where the door meets the dashboard. It's such that the door/window is at the bottom of the picture.

    Poor Freddawg. First he had water in his headlights.

    Then he has wind noise coming in through that little side window.

    And then he said his moonroof wasn't closing properly and he was getting all kinds of wind noise through there, too.

    And then he said there was a rattle under the dashboard....

    What is his car assembled in California? Were they just passed recreational marijuana use? :ROFLMAO: :LOL:
