Power window pics

after doing a couple searches, i noticed a lot of questions about the mounting differences between manual and power windows, with no real answers, and no pics.

I went ahead and snapped a couple pictures, during my install, and marked the mounting holes, because i know it would've saved me about an hour of head scratching if they had been available previously. Maybe this could be added to the FAQ thread for future reference.


First Pic shows the Manual regulator and the 4 mounting points.


Second pic shows the Power regulator. Notice how it mounts vertically, using 6 mounting points, so you will need to acquire 4 additional bolts to cover both doors.


There's a good reference image of the actual difference between the two regulators HERE.


hope this helps somebody

This is a big help - I think I spent two days trying to find how to mount these things last year, it became so obvious after I had the first one done

I tried to get a pic, but the glass didn't show up.

I'll try to get another.
