power windows

[zac]

I have a 99 ga and the drivers side power window quit working. I took the door apart and found that there was a plastic piece broken. It is the piece that hold the bottom of the window to the track/cable system. GM has to sell me the entire motor, tracks, and cable system just to get this one piece. Any ideas as to where i can get it? Thanks

Is this the piece that is broken?

[zac]

Yes, can i get just that piece, or do you know anywhere i could the tracks and everything else for cheap?

You require part#s
12335483 and 12335485

Make sure that the regulator is in good shape before installing these parts or it will be a total waste of time.

So i can give those part numbers to a GM dealer and get just the pieces i need? Thanks

Ever since GM screwed me over on replacement parts, I always go to my body repair shop. He orders me replacement parts at dealer cost. I don't know if you have any friends that do body work but I found it easier on my wallet. And yes, part #'s work. But check a local body shop.

I called GM with the part #'s and they had the 12335483 but they told me the 12335485 was disc. GMpartsdirect.com gave me the same results. Which part was which? All i need is the plastic piece, is that the 12335483? Thanks again

sorry to take so long to get back to you there is a new number for the discontinued part. It is 22697623
FYI there was stock all over north america on the old number.

I finally got the pieces needed to fix the window. i was just wondering if anyone else has replaced these pieces before? i want to make sure i won't run into anything unusual before i get started. thanks

You got lucky, a girl that used to work with me had the plastic piece that connects to the glass, break on her CRX, and you have to buy a whole new piece of glass. So I glued the piece and "stitched" it back together with wire. Ghetto as hell but that was well over 4 years ago and last I knew it was still working. :)
