Golf MK4 n/s window dropped all way down
« on: 11 December 2012, 21:03 »
Right, passenger side window dropped all way down, I've managed to get it up, so that's good

the White clips on the mechanism have broken, the question is, would I need to buy a complete mechanism or can I purchase the White clips from vw seperately?

Thanks

You haven't said weather yours is 4 door or 2 door however take a look on ebay................


I have used 2 of these kits on my own car and done a mates with the same supplier,
They have all been spot on

He does sell just the clips and they are metal but I just replaced the lot

Hi

mine is a 4 door, I've been looking on eBay and I think I need these, eBay item number: 310408392906

and another thing is, how do I remove the silver/metal padding sort of thing, which covers the whole mechanism area,

Do I break off the 2 black rivets?

The 3 black plastic things connect to the door module. You don't need to pop them back in as they are just for ease of assembly from the factory
