Most other cars I've owned there is actually 3inches or so of glass inside the door at all times,this car seems to maybe have an inch tops.

Will probably try a couple drops of lock deicer/methanol down the window where the clamps are before trying to open the door.
So when the windows get frozen to the rubber seals, how did you get your door to open? Did you just scrape the ice off and then tug hard on the door? Or is that bad for the windows?
