Jim, I sell new Genuine VW window regulators for $131.05, and new wiper motors for: $81.11 I currently have both in stock.

When I got it out, I discovered that the motor seems to be dead, and the regulator has obvious trouble. The lower cable guide was pulled loose from the frame upright (rivet missing), and I did not have enough cable slack to bring the guide back to position. When I took the cover off the cable spool, I found that the cable was seriously kinked and that a large segment was not rolling onto the spool. It looked like a backlashed fishing reel. After I pulled the spool and unwound the cable I was able to get the lower guide back to position. My questions are: 1. Can the cable be replaced? The current cable is too kinked to ever work? 2. Can the motor be repaired? 3. Do any of you have a good motor and regulator to sell? Vanagain lists the motor but not the regulator. Any other sources? TIA Jim Huskins Spruce Pine, NC
