Window regulator WTF

Well, its been 1/2 a year since ive gone through any drive throughs or enjoyed blunt rides because my dam window regulator is broke. Any of you have an extra that works? Ebay has many but for the "quality" ones, there 70 shipped, for the normal ones, there 50 shipped. Install ill do myself but i dont feel like spending a whole lot on this part since all my money needs to go to tuning.

uh, sorry, but 70 bucks is what i payed and it's worth spending; i'd much rather have a window that works than spending it on anything else

$70 is good, the only thing about the ebay ones are that you lose the auto down feature ...

i just fixed mine yesterday, i cleaned my car and went to move it after and the window came down a little then stopped and then went all the way down. Luckily, i knew a mechanic that owed me a favor and did it for the bubble.

i got mine for $40 on ebay. i think all the regulators are pretty much the same. they all say "high quality" bla bla, and that they still retain all the OEM features like auto-down but they truth is ive never hear of anyone that bought a regulator off ebay that had that feature.

I wanna say that sometimes the one touch works. Because I bought a regulator off of ebay for my drivers side for an Accord, and my one touch still works. I think others on here have the same expirence. Sometimes you just get lucky.

owwww, yeah, snow=sand+salt+water......means perfect time for rust, clean your care often, watch out for frozen locks, put a GOOD WAX on before winter, it'll help your paint (obviously!), and clean your undercarraige, cause that'll rust sooner than anything....this is just my experience from 18 years of damn New England winters
