Default new window motor installed

Well, finally got around to installing the new window motor, bought it from Autozone for 49.99, was my first time to replace one, and it took me and my friend an hour to do it, the worst part was probably drilling out the rivets the window motor has been out since December, its great to drive with the drivers side window down again!!!! anyways not looking forward to the other side going out, but its just a matter of time Well just thought I would share my experience with ya'll, and thanks to the search button for all of the help and instructions on how to replace it!!!!

Did you have to pull the "Regulator" To replace the motor?

I need to get around to doing that too. Did you follow a write up or is it pretty much an easy thing to do w/o instructions?

yeah, I finally got around to doing mine last week, its been out for about a year but its the pass side, after I removed the door pannels I drilled holes in the inner door pannel where the rivets are holding on the window motor, then get a smaller bit for the rivets, and I wuz going to just put rivets back in but the new motor wouldnt sit flush without alot of pressure, so you need to use those nuts and bolts to get it on tight
