Hello all,

Just wondering if anyone has a pair of the above window regulators that use the worm drive cable going spare?

In mainly good working order. If the plastic channel guides are worn then could maybe still use them if I can fabricate some nylon replacements.

Anyhoo, just seeing what's out there. Melbourne area would be easier as the volumetric postage will probably be quite pricey.

Cheers,

Cheers Les. If not too much trouble would you be able to measure the height, width and depth as if they were placed in a box? Then I can figure out how much AusPost would want out of my piggy bank if I can't find locally 👍

Mike I sent another message but not sure if it went through, the mechanisms are the worm and gear type not the crank and lever type as shown in karmanngkia60's post. If you PM your mobile No I will take another couple of photos and send them direct.
