TIGHTEN THIS!

After you get the clippy in place, you can tighten the cable by unlocking the adjustment locknut (on top of motor, toward front of car, where cable is going up), then turning (long hexagonal) adjustment nut until cable slack is taken up (or until adjustment nut will tighten no more [mine wouldn't tighten totally]). Retighten locknut, then cable should be less likely to come off or to cause thumping. Also, there is a small rubber stopper at bottom of door where bottom edge of door glass rests when window is down. Mine was very funky! You can probably fabricate from other rubber part (new or old) laying around, so you don't have to order it (glue with contact or weatherstripping type cements). These repairs worked good for me. Hope this helps!
