From DR George:

Quote
Tomorrow, I have an appointment at 11:35 a.m., to get my car window replaced at the dealer.  Earlier tonight, I taped a garbage bag to my open window and HOPEFULLY it'll stay on while I'm driving.

Good luck.  I hope you don't have to drive far as it is cold out there.

It was cols cold and s**wy mixed with rain.  I was able to tape a plastic bag over the window opening and I don't think any water got in.

HOWEVER, it turns out that when I made the appointment to get the window replaced, no one bothered to let the parts department know to actually ORDER that damn part! :o

AND they said that they don't deal directly with insurance companies, so they'd bill me for the whole thing and I'd have to get reimbursed by my insurance. ::)

They said that they'd order the part (they have some in Portland, OR, but it'll take a few days to get here), then they'll call me again to come in.

I called my insurance agent and left a message, but she hasn't called back.  Hopefully, she will tomorrow.

We've been alternating new episodes from Season 3 of "Miss Scarlet and the Duke" (on PBS) and the new season of "The Crown" (on Netflix).
