A lot of shops will roll the windows up and check them because they're told to do so. I'll just pull the fuse. My windows are 20%. Didn't used to be a problem, but it has been recently.

Can you see if she can do mine in Jan......because my tires have some camber wear on the insides and they will not pass me for that.

otherwise the tires are in good shape and have plenty of tread on them.
