out... it takes a lot of force to snap it all the way in

If it is I will buy the part. Can somebody tell me if I am on the right track?
Thanks for your help.

Best, whit
did you clean all the old sticky grease out and put in new stuff? I used vasoline cause I didnt have any synthetic and the white lithium I felt might dry out. Open it up again and check the little wheel type slider if it popped out too.
Like Bill said its a PITA to get them to pop in all the way, i used vice grips.
Also, if the limiter isnt set to stop the window travel in either direction it can pop the clips off, check that with the panel off after the clips are back together.

Where can i find the round slide that goes into the regulator? The guys at the stealership told me i had to buy a new regulator. Is that true or is there an aftermarket one i can get.
Thanks
