Default rainy days: hard to get in/out of TT without getting wet?

I love driving TT in the rain with the additional confidence of AWD, but when I get in and out of the car my calf almost always touch the door sill edge and thus wetting my pants. Do you guys have this problem or am I too tall/short? I am 5'7"

Default Yep...

Same thing happens to me. First noticed it after it snowed and the edge of the door sills were all messy. Left dirt on my jeans...

Default There should be a how-to video.

It helps to open the door wide and stick your leg out twice as far as you think you should have to.

I get in and out of my car many times a day, and not only will this happen, it takes long enough to grab my raincoat/umbrella from the back I usually just run inside.
