Window replacement trouble

cre · 06-23-2010, 02:36 AM

Remove the stops (the white knobs), remove the weather stripping from the outside edge and then jump the window regulator motor with a battery or or other 12v supply which can provide a decent amount of current for a few seconds.

NOTE: Removing the metal bracket which the rear view mirror mounts to can make the job VERY easy.

This really belongs in the MKIII section... thread moved.

Sorry for posting in the wrong section... still getting the hang of this

Thanks for the quick reply though!

So I should completely lower the regulator, and then put the window in?
Or should I only lower it like halfway?
Do I just put the stops back on when the new window is connected to the regulator?
and... could I just use a roll of 4 3volt batteries to power it?
