    All I can say is BE CAREFUL! If your window regulator is counter sprung, make sure you have the regulator locked up somehow. I almost lost my thumb replacing a power window motor on a different car, and I knew it was a little dangerous. If it is counter sprung, when you pop the motor off, the regulator will close like a mouse-trap.
