Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Make you own window cleaner:
1) 1 part denatured alcohol to 2 parts distilled water, in a spray bottle
2) 100% white terry cloth towels, never washed with any fabric softener, only used for window cleaning
3) Spray one towel with cleaner, don't spray window
4) Clean window
5) Buff dry with another towel
6) Windows need to be cool, and out of the sunlight
FYI- I am 6"2' and a Concours winner!
Newsprint (no color, light on ink) or chamois and a foaming cleaner like Stoner invisible glass (after a good wash, of course) will keep the streaks and lint to a minimum. Get a stool or chair if it's too hard for you to see what you're cleaning, and use lots of light. Since the door windows are frameless, it makes it very easy to pull residue from the bottom edge backward, where you can wipe it away from the edge of the window with the door open.
Invisible Glass has always worked the best for me and you can pick it up almost anywhere. Just spray on then wipe off.
Is your height an issue because you're trying to wash the inside of the front/rear windshields? Because if so, too bad, you're in my boat and you'll just have to become a contortionist.
I get the wife to do it - she's not as tall as me, and getting her to do it doesn't seem to tire me out or cause me the same aches and pains as doing it myself.
Groits is not the only one that offers that type of cleaning tool.

I bought one of these "Glassmaster Pro System" on special for $19.95 with an extra set of the terry bonnets thrown in. I wish I had found something like it sooner. I had used my wife's "swiffer" with towels. I could stand outside of my car and reach through the roll cage to clean the back window. This glassmaster tool mounted on a broom handle reaches the corners better and the tool (with out the stick) makes windshield corners much easier.
