Ok I dont know where my mind was when this happened. Ok heres how it happened. I was backin out of my parking space at my apartment with my door open, and i ran into a pole. window first then with the back part of my door. my window got out of place to the point where i couldnt close my door. instead of sitting vertically with the door it kinda got horizontal. so i took the door panel off and loosed up the 3 or 4 screws holding the window in place on the top. that kinda fixed the problem so i can at least close the door. but now there is about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch gap between the window and the rubber piece that goes around it. it looks like the window got pushed toward the front of the car a little but i cant pull it back. is there any other bolts i might be able to loosen up to slide it back into place. sorry to make this so long but i just anted to explain as well as i can. :( hopefully some one can help because its starting to rain and the water is getting in.:eek:

you probably bent your window regulator when you hit the pole.. open the door put your knee on the door to keep it in place. grab the top uf your glass with the windo up and pull it toward you. if it is bent toward the front of the door you may not be able to bend it back into position because you bent the harder part of the regulator structure When you backed into the pole. You may ultimately end up replacing the regulator.

Ok thanks. but the window doesn't bend anywhere. SO my next choice is to take it to the dealer, because i dont want to take it to no ghetto window place so they could make it worse. thanks for the advise anyway. :D :)
