    Adding to what Ron said, there is also a small actuator "tab" that clips to the underside of the lower engine cover. It is there to push down on the plunger of that switch.

    I took the car out tonight, seemed like a good night to put on the jean jacket and life preserver and go for a spin.

    It was cold out, not freezing, but likely in the low 40s (F). The car did well, but my driver's window was noticeably slow going up. Seemed fine going down, but up was to a crawl almost.

    Makes me wonder if the cold could have some impact on window operation? Anything come to mind in the window system that could be getting affected by cold temperatures? The window motors are both original. Switches are new though. It doesn't seem to be off it's track or anything like that. And it goes down nice and level and closes up snug across the whole thing.

    Try some silicone spray in the window track.

    Replaced my almost non-existent door roof seals. Ended up using a dremel to cut off the heads of the rivets and then after pulling the metal panel, used some vice grips to crush and gently pull the remaining rivets out of the door.

    Used some machine screws instead of rivets when installing the new seals... you're welcome whoever buys my car years from now and is faced with replacing them again

    I wired in my garage door opener to a button (like this https://www.ebay.com/itm/28271535566...3A282715355666) that I placed in a dummy switch where my rear window defroster switch used to be (removed the real defroster switch because I have never used it).
