Last night with I tried to shut my door it would not completely shut. The window never went down a little bit when I opened it up so when I shut it, it did not got under the trim. I had to open the door, roll the window down a little and then close it again to get a seal under the trim. I think that this may be due to cold weather but I'm not sure. It seemed to work fine this morning but I don't know if I should go have it checked.
Anyone else have this problem?

You should recalibrate the window, just incase that was the problem. I don't think the cold would have anything to do with the window not dropping down. Normally it is a calibration issue or a dead battery, which I know you don't have. To reset the window, close the door and roll the window down all the way. Now roll it up. Now hold the window button in the up position for 2 seconds and let go of the button. The window is now calibrated.

Cool, I will try calibrating the window and post back in a day or so to let you know what happened. I want to give it a day to see if it happens again.
Thanks.

Oh, and by the way John, I have seen lots of posts about your mods and I have never taken the time to tell you that you have a darn fine vehicle. Just wanted to let you know.

Thanks Ryan. Also, if this happens to you again and you don't have time to recalibrate it, when closing the door use 2 hands. Place one on the door and the other on the top corner of the window (in line with the door handle. When you close the door the window will slip into the weatherstrip. Works great. I currently have the battery out of my car and have had to open and close the car at least a dozen times.

I calibrated the windows and it seems to have fixed the problem. When I close the door, the window moves just the right amount for a good seal. I will post again if I have any more trouble but I have a feeling that it will be fine.

Thanks again.
