    Drivers side window mech (Coupe)

    My drivers side window mech decided today it wasn't playing ball
    It will only go up or down a few inches before it stops dead and its making some horrible noises !
    I am assuming that the cable has somehow got entangled inside the motor
    This is the second time my window has failed in 3 years, last time I carefully rewound the cable from another mech back onto my motor.

    Nightmare of a job and NOT one I wish to repeat so I'm looking for the complete mech minus the glass

    Cheers, Chris

          Thanks Pete much appreciated
          In the meantime I will probably have a go at re-winding the cables back into the motor.

          Not looking forward to this though as the last time I did this my digits were raw for days !

            Hi Folks,

            Chris, I don't want to hijack your thread but I too am looking for a drivers side window mechanism for a 94 Coupe, the cable is snapped in mine. I picked the car up about 2 months ago and I've been looking for one since but to no avail.

            Pete, it's unlikely you have a second mechanism lying around by any chance? Or if anyone else has one?

            Any help would be appreciated,

            Thanks,
            John

                    Yep no hassle mate, just if by any chance he happens to have a second mechanism I'll take it. Not trying to hijack your thread.

                        Chris, did you get sorted with a window mechanism?

                        Steve, if Chris is sorted, can I arrange taking your mechanism? Can you let me know how much you are looking for it?

                        Cheers,
                        John

                            I've not had a chance to have a look yet, I know I definately have 2x early motors, apparently these can be used with later cars.
