Great video! Only thing I wish you included was how you got the left side window back up and out of the way. The attachment is still attached to my window and I cannot get the window to go up to free it from the track. Maybe you can do another video with that part. Thanks for ALL the other great info though!!
@HopWorksET thank you for watching and commenting unfortunately every car is different. but on this one i got lucky the cable was broken so it allowed the window to move and then i could take the 2 10mm bolts out. but in any other vehicle if the motor is dead then id find a way to unbolt the motor so the window can move freely. hope that helps some i have a few other older videos of other types of vehicles dong the motors maybe some of those have better visuals i belive its a Colorado maybe. but i will in future try to show it better
@@3TsMOBILEMECHANIC The cable was somehow wrapped around the spindle and was holding the window down. I popped the spindle (not sure what you call it, what the motor goes into) out and the cable unwound off it immediately. I was then able to lift the glass. I did not have a new cable or regulator and was heading to Albuquerque (wife was tapping her foot) so I took the cable that was still attached and wrapped it around a 10mm bolt that was closest and tightened the bolt. I used heavy duty heat-shrink tubing to buffer it from the edge to prevent vibration from cutting the cable. It's temporary but worked. I got that idea from your video (passenger side rear window). The window stayed up firmly the whole trip. We were so relieved we didn't have to do a cardboard temp window!! Anyway, THANKS!!!
Looks like a straightforward job. I actually like the idea that the vapor barrier is solid.
i never thought of it that way good point
it looks better not having to mess with the glued on vapor barrier like judih said good job thanks for sharing
i dont mind either way just dont mount the regulator to the whole plastic assembly
