Just replaced both of my window motors today. It was very simple and took about 3 hours eating crap.If any one needs to replace theirs on a 4th Gen car heres a great website with detailed instructions:

I saw the bumbers for the window which i was told are the cause of the scratches on the glass and i was wondering if could swap those and if so were would i get a pair. Any information about avoiding future scratches on the glass would be welcomed.

no its a formula LT1.
The engine was rebuilt recently and the rims are a little wor but when i put new rims i want them to be thrust torque or ZO6.

Hello,
I had the drivers side moter replaced today. The dealer wantred $470 total and I bought the part online for $30 and paid $140 (2 hr) labor.
The instructions at http://shbox.com/page/windowmotor.html looked GREAT but I have to work alot right now and simply didnt have the time as I wanted it done right away.
My message - despite if you do it or not DONT PAY A DEALER - it can be done for a $30 part and 2 hours labor from garage or 2-3 hours of your time.

yeah well im glad their fixed but i cannot afford to pay some one 140 to do one motor when i did both for free....it would have ran me 280 just to install them... forget that.... and i enjoy getting to know my car
