    You won't really find anything better. They're just destined to fail after a certain amount of time and use. Your best bet is to get one from the local auto parts store with a lifetime warranty.

        I purchased the Dorman brand (lifetime warranty) last year and they work great. $65 a pair shipped to my door and took me about 3 hours to install both. Good luck...

          I think that was the brand I got from Auto Value.

          Just did mine a month and a half ago.

            I'm surprised there isn't someone out there who has come up with some sort of spring system or something to take the weight of the window off the motor... I'd be willing to pay some good money for something like that... lol

                      The most important thing to do is:

                      A. Buy from a place that has a lifetime replacement policy.
                      B. Make a good copy of the receipt because they fade over time and you will definitely need to use it.
                      I solemnly swear I am up to no good.
