Window guide broke... Today the guide for the drivers side window broke from the metal that is on the glass.
The piece looks like it was rivited and i have no idea how to fix this, or a part number to get a new one. I will go take pics then post back in a few.

common problem - here are two good threads: (they are impossible to find mixed in with all of the window motor issues!)

Hey:
Those are very good threads.
I had the same thing happen but I welded 2 stainless steel washers on the metal frame 1 on each side, ground the washer to fit the contour of the frame
and drilled and tapped the old guide with a new stainless bolt. It is still working 7 years later, and it has lasted longer than the factory job, and I hope goes 7 more years.
