try it again, it all works for me.

but the best hting is to use the search feature. search for window regulator. it'll yield a-many results, infact a recent thread just the other day we talked about regulators.

check ebay for CL window regulators.

You can also use car-part.com to search for used regulators near your zip. These can be a bargain for a good OEM used part.

good luck

Buy a regulator from a honda or acura dealership or at least brand new...The window regulator uses a plastic pulley with a metal wire. Anyone can guess what happens when metal has to constanly come in contact with plastic. And no, plastic does not win. Used regulators do not have the same life that a new regulator has, trust me...I buy used parts all of the time but I learned not to cheap-out on the regulators. Good Luck

with all the problems common to the window regulator failing, this is a buy new only, b/c soon you'll need another, its like replacing worn ball joints with used ball joints, sure it'll work but you'll still need to fix it again soon!

i dont agree. you're getting ripped off buying from a dealer. im not paying 300 bucks for a window regulator. get the ebay ones for 50$ and put it in yourself, takes 1 hour max

I paid like $130 ($30 core) at Autozone. It was new and came with a lifetime warranty... it broke 13 months after I installed it, and I got another one free. I say its worth it to go new (not from dealer) rather than re-furb or ebay.
