window, odometer, and door lock problems Hey guys i DESPERATELY need help. To start things off i have a 98 firebird. The drivers side power window is screwed up and i have to guide it up with my hand. i found one thing that may be wrong with it and need a place to put a pic. any ideas what could be wrong? price of part? Second, my oddometer has burned out. the only thing it shows is Trip, no numbers. Ideas? Thirdly, my drivers side power door lock doesnt work. I took the door apart and found the piece that holds the actuator to the part that holds the door shut (dont know name, also have pic) to be broken. I need the name/ price of the part so my power door lock can work again. It works when i manually lock it, just not with the button/remote. 
Thanx guys hope you can help!
peace

To answer your window question, yes, that's the problem. That's the stabilizer. There's two of them. GM part number 10257988. $5.39 a piece from gmpartsdirect.com. I am in the process of fixing the same problem. Just got my parts in last week. I'm replacing both stabilizers as a precaution. Make sure the window track bolts are tight (the ones that hold the window mechanism to the fiberglass door frame). Mine had worked loose breaking the stabilizer. I've already tightened them down once. When I put in the new stabilizers this week, I'm going to put a dab of Loctite on them and tighten them again.
Good luck.
