Review on πŸ”§ Dorman 749-508 Front Driver Side Window Regulator (OE FIX) - High-Quality Replacement for Select Models by Jason Mitts

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits, Works: Replacement parts

Fits like OEM. Time will tell how long it will last. However, the large plastic pallets that hold the window are stress-cracked during installation (you have to force them to slide along the edge of the glass until the plastic tab snaps into the hole in the glass, causing it to flex until it snaps into place). ). The originals broke when they were removed, they were very brittle (the temperatures were below zero here, which probably didn't help). Tip: You can replace this without completely removing the inner door panel and unhooking the door lock/latch. The rails are actually attached to the plastic inner door panel, not the door frame itself. Once you've got the glass off of it you can unscrew the 4 screws holding it to the inner board and remove the motor (you'll need to remove the old motor reuse, it just slides over the wedges). Just be careful not to break the inner door panel where it connects to the latch, there are a couple of brittle (when cold) plastic fingers holding it together. Arrived pre-lubricated and ready to install.
