Greetings all.

Problem that keeps happening in my 130: A passenger jumps into the car, and rolls the window down, using super strength, and will wind the window down PAST the stop inside the door. This knocks the window chain off the tensioner, and I have to dig into the door panel to fix it and reset the window stop. Obviously when this happens the window stops working.

Is there some way I can make the stopper at the bottom of the door stronger? This has happened 4 times in the past month and I'm really growing tired of it. I've tried my best to explain to passengers the delicate nature of the car, but we all know how many non-antique volvo folks can be. They are wonderful people, they just don't know any better.

I'd love to hear any ideas.

Thanks as always!
