I have been taking photos through the driver's window for years. It helps to have a wide angle lens, and focus to infinity if you can. I try to get a bit of the dash in the frame. It is pretty hard to get the whole window frame. Lean back as much as you can when taking the photo.

Found another one, a nice pic I took showing the dash and ambulance fan:
It's weird the scenery doesn't look very nice here as those rocks are actually pretty cool looking in person.
scvw - Cool pics, I know what that area looks like in person and it's awesome
