Oh, bless you my child!
It has been long enough since I pulled the panel and many, many years since I've replaced a front window lifter that I could not remember if there were such things. Score!

Well now, that's a 123 coupe for ya!
People often tell me: Wow, sweet car.
I often respond: From time to time, I feel the same way.

I've replaced both of the motors in the lifters for the rear quarter windows so I can probably successfully swing this little foray at the driver's door.

Bottom line?
Thank you for this *VERY* helpful reply!!
