my son has a 97 passat wagon and (of course) the regulators are going or have gone bad.
can anyone help with experience/options for him? if it's me, i'd just set up a strap and latch setup (he's 17 and lucky to have a car to begin with). anyone done something like that? tia |

thanks banger.
it turns out the window came apart from the regulator due to corrosion (and my son climbing up a curb while turning and then slamming it down putting a huge dent in the rocker) we managed to get the window and gutter sort of re-assembled, but it's not right and needs to be cleaned up and de-corroded. it could be bent too. we're going to get back in there saturday, so maybe i'll be looking for more help then. paul |
