      yea, i got it for $20 so it's not a huge loss if it doesn't

      aren't the motors secured with rivets?

                Manual windows FTW :)

                It's sad to think I've never owned a car with power windows other than the two I have bought my wife over the years.

                  Its easier with 2 people. One can hold the winow and the other can fish around to put the nut on.

                  Took dad and I around an hour. Hardest part was fiding the rivets.

                    It's got good pics and steps to replace your window motor. Last one I did I just went to Autozone and got a motor for about $30.
