That is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! This site rocks!

Also gotta say that this is a surprisingly difficult thing to do. Going to take a few hours.

Default How do you swap out the window motor?

I bought a window motor yesterday for my Z since the stock POS is going out. I take off the interior door panel, speaker, clear plastic shield, etc., and can barely see/get my hand in there. And then the thing is held in by rivets as best as I can tell.

Does anyone know what to do? This seems ridiculously hard - a cam swap might be easier on our cars.

Yep, its a slight pain in the ***. I watched Jeff at MTI change one for Dave (blown black Firehawk). You will need a rivet gun.
