Default Driver Window Regulator

EFFFFFFF THAT!!!

so this will be the 2nd door im replacing the window regulator because they just seem to break... though this is the first car ever ive had to do this one... let alone twice

the first time i bought the door frame with regulator and motor for about $50 and had to do the labor to tear it off the other car

now i don't have that option, does anyone know where to find a regulator at a good price? I did buy one off of ebay and it was a piece of **** that didn't fit correctly and it was a waste of $65, ECS is selling them for $95... is there another quality place that is cheaper to purchase from


edit* i thought about buying the repair kit but i don't think those are the right parts that broke... check out the image, i think its the parts that say WTF plastic that broke


thanks!

you just need the plastic clips right? I've heard that the best place to get them is at the dealership service department. they're only like $10. or try the local auto parts place.

you do not need to replace the entire mechanism if it is just the plastic clips that are broken.

this is what I had in mind for the job that you are trying to do

made by a member here on the forums


I've never messed with mine (yet) so I apologize if what you need to replace is different
