refer to Astromans firecracker incident. That alone is a lesson in rolling up windows.

Glad to hear your car is OK. Did you get any funky smell problems?

I never roll my windows down..... that was the whole reasoning behind getting manual windows and dark window tint... stealthy

Watch out for mold, mildew....keep the interior aired out....spray Lysol to counter any potential growth of the bad stuff.

Yeah, a nice expensive lesson The shop has had my car now for 2 days. Do yourself a favor, always keep those windows up when no one is in the car. You never know what might make it in there!
