Electric window regulator desperately needed
Hey guys, new here. I'm desperately in need for the rear driver side window 'regulator'. My rear window suddenly fell off the track and when the panel was taken off, the regulator expired. I called GM and they'e a fortune. Anyone have one for sale or know where I can pick one up for cheap, please please advise. thanks.

junkyard.. i'm not sure of what years will be compatable, if you have to have the new body style, or 93-97, or if an 87-91 is compatable, but a junkyard is you're best bet if the dealer charges too much [which is always the case].

thanks but they don't have either. Selling price is between $200-$400 bucks !! Man, can you imagine building a car piece by piece? Why is it so expensive? I mean you buy an american product, buying locally but once they have you , we're stuck with them-that'* wrong.

The best place that I have found for regulators is www.gmpartsdirect.com.
It'* the same GM part at dealer wholesale price, plus shipping.
I think the last one I bought cost about $160 shipped, which was half of dealer retail for the exact same part. It'* still expensive for a window part, but it sure beats paying full retail!
I found that junkyards don't like to sell the regulators, unless the door is destroyed. Of course, a crushed door usually takes out the window hardware, too.
