After several window motors (4-5) over the past 6 years, finally the regulator gave way. Somehow it jammed one way and will no longer move up and the teeth of the regulator are pretty much stripped from the different motors used over time.

So I have two options: buy part from dealership and have them install and deal with headache. (150 for part 300 for install 1 yr warranty)

Or

$75 for part and installing a window myself. I've done the motor several times and it is a pain in the *** solo.

If anyone has a guide or some steps to make sure I take for self installation it would be greatly appreciated.

I can't drive around LA with my window all the way down much longer
