Greetings everyine - hope someone there can help me.
One of my rear windows stopped responding the other day. I had to take the car in anyway for some scheduled service and the dealer advised that the motor needed to be replaced. Trouble is, they want to charge me about $475 to replace the motor!
I found the motor on PartsTrain.com for about $60 shipped - looks like to just attaches directly to the window regulator. The guy I talked to said that the real pain of the install is cracking open the doors - I've read threads elsewhere that speak of clips and such that can break. He also mentioned to secure the window well with strong tape or it will crash down when the motor is replaced.
I did Search the forums and found THIS THREAD that talks about testing the motor, but I assume the dealer is right and it's out, so I guess what I REALLY need is assistance on cracking open that door panel. Can anyone direct me to a How-to?
Thanks!
