    Can you manually operate the rear quarter back windows on the ferrari California ?
    I have just had the window tinting taken out and the technician was able to keep the quarter back windows up even with the top down. He told me there is a trick somewhere by the door lock but i can find it.
    Anybody knows ?

    Thank you in advance !

    You can put all of the side windows up with the top down. I am not sure what you are trying to do.

    Just want to check if driving the car with the top down at highway speed and all 4 windows up is more comfortable or if there is no difference than just the front windows up.
    Thank you !

    From memory, getting the quarters up you hold the window button up or down or press it again as the quarters do not see to be simultaneous with the main window but a separate function using the same button. I like to drive with the driver side down and passenger side up. Most comfortable for me but to be honest compared to other dropheads the buffeting is minimal in any case in my opinion

    The Owner's Manual (section 3,page 76 for the Portofino) describes all the ways of operating the windows.

    Depends on the temperature, wind speed and direction. We experiment to see what is more comfortable. There is also a removable black mesh wind deflector that can be inserted in the rear of the cabin to cut cabin noise.

    Also, be careful with the window switches. I've read that they are fragile.
