Are you sure it isn't just the "sleeve?"

If so, here's a how-to.
From our friend, Victor in Canada:
Price of part from local dealer: $8.84CDN.
Pics are in my locker for the disassembly process.
1) Remove felt from door handle/storage, and remove 3 screws.
2) Remove panel from underneath door opening latch/handle, and remove 2 screws.
3) Remove 2 screws at the "front" of the door, and pry the door panel from the bottom to remove. Panel is held in place by plastic snaps.
4) Remove the trim/armrest support by removing the two screws. Peel back plastic for weather proofing.
5) Adjust the window motor cable using the power window switch until the little "nut-looking" piece on the cable is in this area. Fit the "sleeve lock regulator" onto this "nut". Adjust window manually about 1/2 way down. You will see the black metal support attached to the glass, with a square opening in the middle. Put sleeve lock regulator into opening and slide into place for a snug fit.
6) Reverse removal procedure.
Time: Less than 30 minutes.
Who said this car is expensive to fix?
(I should learn to keep my mouth shut in case my car hears me and breaks something expensive...)
