It looks like my driver side window motor is on the fritz and wont go down.

It was acting up on the weekend on my way up north and yesterday did not want to go down. Good thing I made it home without issue but this is a real PITA on the ZR.

The Windows need to go down to get the top down and even if it does what if it dosen't go up again im pooched if it rains etc..

This is true. I am heading down to 401 Nissan today as soon as I finish my coffee. Sasha knows a guy there that he recomends and he is going to re-charge my air con. If i'm lucky he will have time to do my door. If not I will see about an apointment for it. Really want this done quick though time is money.

Update
I went to 401 nissan and had a good day. Sasha meet me there actually. They re-charged my air con and replaced my window motor while I waited. The window motor was covered under warranty yahoo!!!

The cost for the motor and install would have been huge like over 700 bucks if not under warranty!
