Ihave a 96 camaro andI havejust bought a brand new window lift motor at Auto Zone. Iwas just wondering how hard these are to replace? and alsowhat tools will needed forthe installation? I'm pretty good at reading/understanding directionsand working with my hands so if it's not too hard of a job and if someone could be so nice as to go step by step through the process of it, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

 

Go Here , follow the directions, click the pictures and print em out, it works great, only took me like 30 some minjutes each side

Thanks dude that helped a lot. I didn't even have to drill the holes in the inner door panel because they were already drilled so the previous owner saved me a little bit of time, lol. After I removed my outter door panel (the panel inside the car) there was a plastic wrap going across the whole door with some tarlike sticky crap holding it to the door. I just ripped it all off and threw it away because I didn't think it was necesary. Was this a good choice or did it serve some type of purpose? My other question is did you use any type of grease or anything on the motor gear or should I apply any?

 

[align=left]that plastic if i am correct was clear right??? like a regular piece of plastic from like tarps and ****? i had the same thing, i think its just there to keep the wind out of the car ya know??? i threw it out 2 and im sure most people do lol. Well glad to see it worked out for ya.

That plastic film is for water/moisture protection -- BAD idea to get rid of it!!!

 

Yeah thats true , i replaced it recently after i found that i had water getting into my door handle inside hahaha
