Justin... I am in the same position as you are. The teeth on the end of the regulator wore out and wont take the window totally to the top. There's a 1/2" of space. I had to pull the window up to fully close it. I ordered a good condition used regulator with motor for $40 shipped. Unfortunately I don't have a heated garage and in Ohio its chilly. I am waiting for the weather to warm up a little before I hit this project. Let me know when you will be starting.
