Anyone in the DFW ( I currently live in Desoto Lancaster area) want to do my window motor install?

It is simple. The hardest part is just aligning the motor back onto the mechanism. Both doors should take under 3 hours

there is a nice guide on this site somewhere with pictures.

ive done a couple now, and the worst part for me was always trying to use rivets to re-attach. its possible I dont really know how to use a rivet gun. i gave up when i did my camaro, and just used the bolts with some blue loctite.

Both doors should take like 30 minutes, it's a piece of cake. Like said, the biggest bitch is trying to align the motor, but even that's not too bad and once you have that, it's simple

Do it yourself. Took me 30 mins the first time with no ls1tech guidance. Just replace the Clecos with screws. It'll make for a faster install next time around. Ive heard you can use a certain truck model that works faster going up than than the camaro replacement.
