Well my passenger front window decided to "pop" on me the other day and now I have it held up with a vice grips; Where is the best/cheapest place to get one of these? I'm willing to go used too. The local parts retailers keep telling me that this is a dealer only item.

 

Try tascaford.com. I started to order mine, ended up getting it at the local dealer for $75. They had it in stock. Mine was the driverside.

 

Wow, my local dealer wanted like $180 for mine. That was about 2 months ago.

 

had the regulator and motor replaced in my 05 two weeks ago, they got me for $390 walk out! JERKS! Now I found out it's a common problem.

 

Got mine from Tasca

 

Was that installed? I bought the part and installed it myself.

 

There are places that sell just the regulator and you use your old motor. I bought regulator and motor together.

 

Neither of mine cost $75. One entire regulator assembly cost around $130 and one around $145. I installed them both myself.

 

Links possibly? I can't believe I am having such a hard time finding this part.

Also, google this:

Ford truck window regulator

I get lots of hits.

 

I bought the whole motor/regulator assembly and installed it myself. Took about 30-45 minutes.

 

i vote that you do it again and do a how to article since this seems to be a common problem that cost more in labor than parts.

 

What part # did you go with?

 

It'll be different. Mine was driver side. You should be able to pull it up on Tasca Ford's website.
