I saw the whole setup with the motor riveted to the regulator for $174 at WWW.ECKLERSCAMARO.com this morning. Maybe not the cheapest but if you cant find anything else??

well 90% of the time it will be the motor because the scisor regulators in the f-body's are pretty strong, but I installed my motor and it still wouldn't work later finding out it was the regulator too.

well i changed my motor out,
and it was working fine for a day or so, then i can roll the window down, then it'll drop a few inches and do that again, when i roll it up it goes up then gets stuck, so i pull up the window and press the button to roll up, this also happens twice..any advice?? thanks

well that seems like a motor problem but you obviously took care of that so I would have to guess the regulator personaly. Before you buy one I would check with an expert, which im not. I know that a lot of people (mechanics) say that if your'e changing your window motor that it's good to do the regulator too and get it all done at once, but they can be quite spendy compared to how cheap we can get motors.
