Front Window Regulator Replacement on the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible

Hello everyone, welcome to ‪@AutoScholarwithMrB‬ ! Today we will be replacing the window regulator in this 2003 Beetle Convertible. This is for the front windows. The rear is a more difficult job.
If your window will not go up or down, and you can hear the motor working, chances are the window regulator has failed. It is very common on all Volkswagens build around this time.
The part was brought to me by the customer and was purchased from Parts Geek. I do not have a part number but I am sure you ca find it on their site.

So when do you cut the cable tie exactly?? Cheers
