Unhappy Rear windows in the 1st gen TL

Does anyone know if rear windows in TL can be rolled down any further? As a matter of fact, other 4 door hardtop cars I can think of have rear windows that go almost all the way down (Lexus ES300, Mitsubishi Diamante, Acura Integra...etc)

why would you want them all the way down?
well to each their own
I like the look myself as it is the same in my Vigor.

If you are looking to make them go down further I suggest you take apart your door, look at the frame and the mechanism used to hold the window in place. You may find that the Acura engineers did a good job after all.

the windows can't go all the way down because they have to compensate for the door contour. notice the window is about a third above the rear tire? i'm not sure, but i think that's the farthest it will go. i agree it kinda looks like the window is broken or sumptin'...............aloha...................

one thing i hate about our cars is the fact that the rear seats are soooo hard to get into. everytime one of my friends had to get into the car they would always hit their heads on the frame. i feel so embarassed.
