Default Replaced Window Motor today

Had a friend help me. I was a ford guy before going LS1 route. So I somewhat watched/helped to see what was different and didnt want to **** anything up. Suprisingly it really wasnt that bad. I'm glad I had a new paint roller in the garage to support the window. Works perfectly and enough room to get your hands inside the door.

how exactly did you use the paint roller? Did you put it under the window when it was all the way down?

I just use a 6 inch C clamp placed under the track an on top of the door frame. Works great, doesn't need to be tight, just supportive
