Dude i messed up my plastic so bad looking at other videos trying to get the handle off and just couldnt understand what kind of clip it was from other videos. Thanks to you saying its a c clip and showing it, i FINALLY understood!!! Thank you!
@@HomeownerDIY i have, everything that ive seen is for a 2dr coupe or hatch not the 4 door sedan. I would imagine they would be different if the doors and windows on a coupe are bigger then the sedan
@@EnvyDelusions I have a hatchback, but I think parts are the same from 96-2000 even with a sedan. It gets expensive to need specific parts for specific cars.
I normally find getting the door panel over the top rail the harest part of the job. In this case, the rubber on the door handle side curled away from the groove. I used the window and some persistance to get it back into its track. Maybe that is what the problem was on your job as well.
Thanks for your question, you can give it some bearing grease. Really it has so much grease that l dont think more grease is necessary. If l were to grease it, l would grease the rollers and pivot points. Hope that helps.
Hi brother, Great video 😊. Mike in London England here. I neeed your advice pleeeeease bro... So unknowingly I've only gone and ordered a Dorman 741-736 window regulator which is for a USDM Civic's (Passenger side) so have just discovered that the regulators motor electrical plug is a 2 pin whereas on my UKDM Civic (Driver side) it's a 4 pin plug. So basically regulator and motor would fit as it's for the right side door, just theres 2 wires and a 2 pin plug instead of 4 wires and a 4 pin plug to connect to my UKDM wiring. Any ideas to work round this bro? Damn totally my fault I should've known plugs would be different being that RHD - UKDM and LHD- USDM, Totally my fault 🤦🏼🤣
@@HomeownerDIY I hope it's possible to use the (USDM Passenger side regulator) as my (UKDM driver side regulator), literally only obstacle is the plug connection bro oh man I hope it's possible to work round it 🤞. As it came all the way from US to me here in England 🤞🤞🤞
Thanks for your question, l think its suppose to be a vapour barrier, as if it wasnt there, moisture could make the inner panel damp. As a rule of thumb, if its there, put it back in as it was there for a reason. Hope that helps.
@@tym5583 I wouldnt say the exactly same, but very similar. Since it's a 96, it might not hurt to give it some silicone lubricant. th-cam.com/video/QDUyICh_zIE/w-d-xo.html If you run into problems, please come back and ask, hopefully l can help you. Good luck!
Can I replace the bolt that the crank attaches To? I found a used but working regulator but the bolt where the hand crank goes on is broken so I was going to use the one on my current regulator
Thanks for your question, can you use another bolt? Short answer is yes. Problem is the housing needs to be welded back together after. Grind the spot welds, change the bolt, respot weld. An automotive shop will be able to help with this for few dollars if you ask nicely. Hope that helps.
@@HomeownerDIY thanks for the reply. I guess I’m confused because on Amazon for this part it also doesn’t show the bolt part that sticks out 3 inches or so…. Do you need to do the same for that new piece?
Almost smashed my window twice but I got it thank you very much ❤

Good job 👍
Anyone have a link to a driverside window regulator for a 2000 sedan?? Ive been searching everywhere and cant find anything. Thanks!
Thanks for your question, have you checked rockauto.com? In my search it comes up that they have them.

Do you have an autowrecker yard you can check?
@@HomeownerDIYi do, just curious is your civic a hatchback/ coupe or a 4dr sedan

Was it difficult to put the window into its grooves? That’s the problem I ran into

Anyway to lubricate the replacement regulator before you install it ?

@@HomeownerDIY thank you
question can i switch the one from the back seat of the same side to the front ?
Thanks for your question, l am not 100% sure on this, but l think they are the same. I cant find anything specifically for a rear, all say front.
thank you for your help , you have good one @@HomeownerDIY

Thanks for your question, are you able to put jumper wires between the plug and the harness?
@@HomeownerDIY Hi brother, not sure what you mean 😬
@@michaelpaterson8086 Please check back tomorrow, l will make a QTOW video on jumpers that will help you.
@@HomeownerDIY Thank you my brother 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Why is the cover there? What's the purpose? Or should u just rip it off?

@@HomeownerDIY OK cool. Gunna attempt tomorrow!
Got a 96 Accord manual window I imagine it's the exact same process lol?
