91 Civic Si Window Regulator question
Hello, I have a 1991 Honda Civic Si that I need some advice for. I am trying to install the drivers side window regulator, and am having problems. I threw the old regualtor away years ago, and rigged my window up until now. So I am missing the retainer clips that hold the window to the regulator and have no idea where to find them. I bought some universal retainers from O'reillys, but I don't think they're going to work. Mainly because I don't understand how to attach the clip to the left side of the regulator. I already screwed the "universal" retainer to the right side as you can see, but I don't know what to do about the other missing clips. Anyone know how I can rig it up, or where I can buy new retainers?

Re: 91 Civic Si Window Regulator question
why cant you get the other clip on?
on those universol ones im pretty sure that a little trimming is nessesary
but then again why didnt you go the junkyard route?
those clips dont have to be from a ef civic
you can get them from the eg and ek modals also

Believe this is what you are looking for https://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-Power-Wi...%7CModel%3ACRX
However those regulators are for the sedan. Its going to bind because the hatch and crx has a bend in one of the arms whereas the sedan arm doesn't. You *can* get it to sort of work but it doesn't work like it should which is really frustrating.
Top is the Hatch regulator, bottom is the doorman sedan regulator with hatch sliders. Notice the bend in the top arm that isn't there on the sedan. https://imgur.com/a/2vkNyl2
