I had a leaky sunroof seal. I cured it be spreading a thin bead of clear silicone over the entire seal, then let cure. Until I crashed that truck, it didn't leak again.

Use a penny between the latch and the window frame. Open the window, penny drops to floor, find another penny to use when you re-close the window.
John B. This is the logical solution. The penny trick works everytime.

Think a previous owner got mad and bent my latch cause a nickel wouldn't get mine to tighten enough to stop the whistling <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Even tried to switch latches but realized the assembly is bent where the latch goes on

I put a little grease on the seal lip to fix my window ...But I must say to that I never use my wing window at all .. And I would think it would be a mess for someone that uses their wing window ....

my Raiders wing windows work great, I use the wing to deflect air around the open door window, so I can still drive with the window open in mild to moderate rain past 40mph. I had to seal the Monteros windows with silicone because the drivers wing window is rusted, and the seals are shot.

Just fixed my wind wings .. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />...
(Not sure how to explain this here but ..)
As your sitting in the truck seat ... Look were the wing rubber meets the door window channel ... I got three rubber o-rings about three inches around with a small cross section .. Cut them then stuffed them in the crack between the wing rubber and the door window channel .. It pushed the wing rubber into the wing glass better and fixed the wind noise ...This may help others ..If you can under stand what I'm try to say ..LOL...
