The other day, my window disappeared. At least that's what it looked like. Got to my car — no window.
Turns out, the window regulator broke, and the glass vanished into the door. Without a working motor, the window wouldn't go back up. The price to fix it? $350-500.
Unless you do it yourself.
 |
| First I took the door panel off. (And left it in my kitchen because that's kinda funny.) |
 |
| Then I removed the plastic weather seal and disconnected the wires. |
 |
| Here's the shiny new regulator. I could've bought it online, but I spent a little more to get it from Engler Bros Auto Parts in Santa Monica. The reason? If we all keep buying everything from Amazon, there won't be small businesses in a few years. |
 |
| Repair time: about 2 hours. Total cost: under $100. |
