    Smile My passenger window now works..... :)

    I finally replaced my passenger side window motor today. It has not worked since I purchased my VX over a year ago. Who knows how long before that. The motor had stripped gears, probably from PO forcing the binding window up.

    Special THANKS to VX_Kat for the motor. It works great.

    Congrats! I just got my SBC window brackets in the mail yesterday, so I'll be doing that install to fix my windows. Sometimes you don't really appreciate a working window until you need to run through the drive-thru

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Thanks, Yes SBC brackets are on my list. I might try the bungee cord first though. I have to save my $$ for a trailer hitch.

    The SBC brackets aren't too spendy.. $65 will get you the brackets and if you can install them yourself, you're that much ahead! I haven't installed mine just yet... procrastination has rules my weekend.

    I know they are not that bad price wise and I can install myself but all 3 of our cars seam to want some attention all at once...LOL
    Today my VX drivers side rear caliper is hanging up. I just replaced the front one last month. The wife's Audi just got another secondary air pump and needs a window reg....etc. It just never ends lately.
