Thanks for the kind words my man. Sorry ya gotta dish out the dinero to get it fixed...

Jesus christ, I just noticed how detailed it was VO, gj.

I've done this for me and a buddy of mine. I can't say how many times I've taken off my door panels but looks like I'll be doing it again but I need to cut through my sound deadener. me = pwned

This was so helpful. I do not do any work on my car but after reading this I decieded to try to fix the motor. I spent 20 bucks at the auto zone buying exactly what you used to complete the job. Duck Tape, panel tool and QD Electrical Spray. Job took me 2 hours being very careful. Now my window works like new! Thanks for the great write-up.

Did you use anything particular to remove the tape residue from the window and rubber trim?

Thanks again!

I really glad I could help you. I suffered with the window problem for about 5 or 6 months. I know it really sucks not having one functioning window.

For the tape residue I used Goo-Gone. WD-40 works also...

It should be exactly the same procedure except taking apart the outer door panel. No biggie though. Everything else should be the same...

Looks like I'm headed to my dads to try this out.
It looks complicated, but glad to hear it only took 2 hours.
Hopefully I'll have my window working by tonight when I goto sleep.
Off to autozone
