Many people have issues after time with the windows drooping and causing excessive wind noise at hwy speeds. If you ever look at your window when the door is closed and window in the up position, you may see a small gap where the window doesnt meet the seal.

There is a several adjustments screws that can be used to adjust the window higher/lower and also towards the front or rear.
To adjust your window you will need:
Socket wrench
16mm or 5/8 socket
13mm socket
T30 torx bit or socket
4" extension
To adjust the window forward or backwards:
First remove the rubber covers at the upper corners of the door panel which will reveal a 16mm nut with a torx screw in it.

Take the 16mm or 5/8 socket and loosen the bolts.
Now you can move below the door. There will be some plastic covers (if you are lucky) that need to be removed. Can be removed with your fingers or flat head screwdriver. Once removed you will expose the adjustment bolts and the bolts holding the regulator down.

There are 3 adjustments screws and 4 bolts holding the reg down. Loosen all 7 nuts. Now you will be able to adjust the window forwards or backwards as needed by moving the adjustment threads up top. You screw it in on the direction you what it to move. So forward, you screw in the front/inside adjuster so the flange moves in and there is a small gap (do small adjustments at a time) and then use the rearside/outside adjuster to push the window forward by unscrewing it until it takes in all the gap of the front. Close the door and check your progress. Repeat as needed.
Now that you have that done or didnt need to do it, you can adjust the height of the window.
At this point you should have the bolts across the bottom loose.

Tighten the 4 13mm nuts to hold the reg in place and then take the T30 and tighten the adjusters to raise the window. You may need to remove the 16mm nut completely to make it easier. Again, do small adjustments and then check your work. When done, tighten all the bolts and then put the plastic covers back on
