Default HELP! Window misalignment TSB - Need Input from people who went through it!!!

Hey guys,

I really need help here. My yellow roadster is outside the 3/36000 warranty (bought it used) and I'm getting a lot of wind/road noise when driving on the highway. I found these TSBs which I think several other people have experienced:

TBS: 17-Oct-03 - 23-023-03 - Body - Wind Noise From Door Mirrors
TBS: 4-May-04 - 23-014-04 - Body - Wind Noise From Top of Door
TBS: 28-Jan-05 - 23-004-05 - Body - Window Glass Misaligned and or Contacts Roof

First of all, have people with the convertables even experienced this? Is this an issue with Coupes or Roadsters? Or both?

If I want to get it fixed, it's going to be a $100 deductible from my extended warranty coverage. I think it's worth it, but don't know if it will fix the problem I'm experiencing with this specific car! I have never owned a convertable so I don't know what is "normal" road noise.

I got really nervous when it snowed here in MI on Saturday. There was snow wedged between the window and the rubber weather stripping, at the very bottom towards the door handle. That to me shows that there isn't a good seal... BUT will these TSBs fix the problem?

The dealership service guy expected the TSB to raise the level of the window about 0.25" to 0.50"

Please give me some insight. I have attached below, a TON of pictures of the door/window joints. Can someone who has gone through this TSB please look and tell me if I'm experiencingt the same thing, and if I should get it fixed?
