[img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img] Just tried to fix my rear window, holy sh*t batman.I was not ready for that! Due to the cables being mangled, I belive they wil need to be replaced.
Does anybody have any experience with these windows?
I managed to get the two cables out but Don't see myself being able to replace them because I am not sure how they were supposed to be ran. (other rear has the same problem)
Thank you in advance for any info.

Here's a writeup on how to remove the regulator. I would suggest that you have some wood behind the glass so you don't break it when you're popping the rivets. And it will be a whole lot easier if you have another person to help you hold the glass. Also, it will be much easier if you have a rivet gun and the proper size rivets. The rivet sizes are in the writeup.

Hi,
Well I tried the method describe for the gear replacement, but now I have a problem.
When I removed the motor the regulator spool popped out and the cable came unwound. The gear was as you described, shattered bushings, I replaced the gear, and replaced the spool.
When I lowered the window, it came down easily at first and then at the halfway point it halted. It makes a grinding sound if I try to roll the window up, and the sleeve that the cable goes into is pulled up tight to the motor housing (It does slacken when the motor goes back up).
I must have gotten the cable onto the spool wrong, too lose, or too tight, I'm not sure. Does anyone know how many times around the spool it should be for a window being fully up?
Also since it is halfway down now, does anyone know a way to get the window up enough to work on it?
