Replaced front window, is it ok to drive on highway??
I had to replace my front window because it got cracked. Its been in there for about 10 hours now and I have to drive to lubbock tomorrow. The driver and passenger windows have been cracked open to equalize the pressure and I will drive with the windows cracked tomorrow.
I am curious if the wind will push the window out of place because it's suppose to take about 3 days for the window to set into place.
Another question not about my window is, how does the WRX drive on long trips? It's about 420 miles from from Austin to lubbock which takes about 6 hours.

I'd suggest bringing along some bottled water because longer trips with the a/c on will tend to dehydrate you.

I drove my car from San Diego to San Jose just the other Sunday (~9-10 hrs) and I had no complaints from my passenger or myself. I'm on stock suspension suspension and riding in the wrx felt better than driving my other car.

When I had my windshield replaced they told me I could drive it an hour after it was installed, just don't slam the doors with the windows closed. And don't wash the car for a few days (rain is no problem).
That was last week, I have had no leaks yet.
