2. its a no brainer, remove the door hinge ( if you havent pull all the window down now you should do so)
3. before you can start on the door panal you have to disconnect the switch that make the window go up and down.
4. underneath the the door panels are these 8 snap on, careful get a flat felip and push it out.
5. remove the plastic seal on the door panal and locate the rubber track. The rubber track get dry so you need to lube it. You can buy any kind of silicon lub at any hardware. I use stp silicon lub i bought at autozone.
6. slide the window down and up until it spread the lub in the track
7. leave the window down and spray some more lub here.
8. you are all done put the door panal back and your window should work great now.

If your sun roof is doing the same thing as the window you can also spray silicon lub in the track as shown here.

What if your window go up fine until the last inch and then won't go any further? I have to pull it the rest of the way up by hand. It's becoming a pain in the ***.

try the lub job if it doesnt work then something wrong with your x brace or the window has fallen off the track.

Also check the holes where the screws go...grooved washers are a good idea there. If your window gets stuck on top, than you have bad window alignment...
