    Does anyone know what I can do about the extreme wind noise coming thru the doors? It’s quite annoying.

    Make sure the seals are in place, those do get unhooked and there are 2 sets of them. Also use treatment after cleaning them well(Armor All products?)

    Other than a poor repair in case of damage, there isn't much to align.

    Ear plugs until you can get the door seals replaced or the windows straightened. I highly recommend Macks slim fit sleep rest ear plugs available at Walmart, Amazon, and many grocery stores in their pharmacy area. I drove my whole career wearing them and often sleeping in them. They are cheap, soft, effective.

    What does the armor all do if u put it on the seals? Keeps them from drying out?

    Softens them up so the seal is better. The cleaner gets the dust out first then the treatment works better, too.
