Yes only rolls down 1 inch then tracks start fckn up. Yes already bonded and car has been painted. bought incomplete running and driving project, so kinda got fast talked do to the amazing state the car was in (compared to the other reps i went to see/to buy), but what I paid i still came out ontop anyway. Great im going to look into those channels and vue tracks.my current glass says toyota on the bottom sticker , so im assuming maybe Celica.. should I go with vue glass or stick with celica seeing as its a murci1?

Only roll down one inch? ::scratch
If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

You can purchase the channel from McMaster-Carr here:  http://www.mcmaster.com/#metal-trim/=r0bckh
You can purchase the saturn vue electric window regulator at your nearby u-wrench-it scrap yard $30, or order from Rock Auto for $58, or purchase a used one on Ebay for $35.  Do you already have the door glass?  Have you already installed your outside door skins?

Perhaps the ones you take the time to fabricate yourself for cheaper than anyone else can produce for you?

I was thinking the same. Thats y I was hoping some1 knew of a junkyard or amazon part to start with and mold from there...

Please dont take this offensive but if I posted trying to find something cheaper than $ 300 usd then wtf would I pay over double for something that may or may not work.. I swear sometimes I feel like the msg boards are filled with ppl waiting to catch someone with the "oem" talk and hit them in the head with prices for pieces that you still have to do the same amount of fab work if not more. All to say what my car has oem this or that.. who cares? I know some do, but everyone on this board can see the most "dressed up" rep and tear it apart in a few glances or a nice bend down and good glance underneth. Anyone elese know of any applicable tracks that can be molded and reasonably priced

Interested to see if anyone knows a cheaper alternative to the molded glass track kit showed here

http://www.supercarreplica.com/photos-of-build-process/doors/door-frames-and-power-windows/

Ive searched for an amazon alternative,  but cant find 1 has to be a cheaper housebrand around. I figure maybe one of the professional google'rs here may know or have a different but similar setup. Thanks im already at 95 % completed run ing driving and painted just looking to tackle this window situation. Say that to note im not a window shopper, lik many of our kit companions
