6n2 electric window runner clips

Post by sandshoes09 »

Hi folks, hopefully some one can help me out here!

I have recently dismantled my passenger window mechanism due to regulator failure but when doing so i snapped one of the grey clips on the runners that hold onto the window. one is beyond repair and the othe possibly salvage-able.

do any of you know where i can buy replacement clips for the runners? looked on ebay but dont seem to have what im looking for.

i have checked the DIY guides but no help there, any help woild be amazing! :D

I just pulled them out mate but you need to push them in using a fair bit of force!

These are perfect spec and work very very well, if, of course, they are what you're after.

Here's the part where mine failed. The metal bracket which holds the glass slides off the crappy plastic clip

Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread, my friend's polo has one runner lower than the other, to the point where basically only one runner is actually latched on and moving the window up / down. What can I do to correct this?
