Hey,
Just recently some guy broke into my car and stole my car deck heh. Well I don't mind but the thing that is getting to me is that he screwed up the right window. Now I can't crank it up. I have to use my hands to physically *lift* up the window in order for it to go up. And this is quite annoying. Did some damage to the trunk too. That's basically how he (i'm assuming it's a he?) got in but at least it closes still. Just see marks of the crowbar (that's what u call it right)?
Anything I can do or do I have to spend a crazy amount of dollars to get a new window etc?
Thx~

Take the door panel off and see if the gear has stripped or if the window is off the track. If you find it is damaged beyond repair contact a local wrecking yard you should be able to get a new one for a few dollars and replace it. The window itself should be just fine.
