Mostly my front ones all the way down, if it's horibly hot outside A/C, with windows down for a few seconds then turn off A/C. I hardly roll my rear ones down, on occasions I do.
BTW, how are them "contour.org" decals after a while when the windows are rolled down occasionally, do they start to wear off? Because I'm considering getting some.

My rear windows don't get rolled down alot but so far the decals have held up fine (on 2 different Contours). Mine are from parkedcar. His are first rate. As long as you clean the glass with alcohol, not Windex, and apply them properly you should have no problems at all.

Just a rubbing alcohol then, like what's the best brand/kind to use?

Just use regular rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol. Make sure it's unscented. I keep a bottle in my garage for cleaning wax off the car for the decals and for the windows also. I also used it to clean spray adhesive off the backing plates of my hood pins when I mounted them. Just don't drink any of it.

I'll make a note of that.

I hate using the A/C because of the power you can feel it sapping from the car. I never go more than 55 because of speed limits around here, so no problems associated with the drag from having them down, so unless it's winter or raining, all 4 windows are as down as they can go.

Tryin' to add an extra .5L ASAP
