heh. someone busted my passenger side window the other night. got a replacement window installed it. during installation (2 bolts), heard a snap and a small white plastic thing fell on the ground. no clue what it was. bolted the window down. sprayed some lube and it was as good as new. next day, the window refuses to go up or down. i can hear the motor struggling though. just had to share my story.

yea i gues im going to have to go that way... i ended up getting it for 100$ from a junkyard.. and an auto glass guy is going ot install for 50$.. i dont get how it broke tho... i was rolling the window up and i hear a small knocking sound.. then my window just droped like an inch... so i grabed my window to see if it was loose.. and it slid up... so then i held the window and lowwerd the regulater slider thing down slowy so it didnt just fall and shatter... i got my flood lights out its about 11 pm... parked it in my garage and got to work.. took off my door panel.. i broke off some of the plastice clips =/.. after i hard it off i took a look inside and i saw teh top cable wasnt connected to anything thats why it woul roll up.. so playing witht eh window for a while the wire would retract and extract liek it normally should.. then on one mof my test.. it just went out.. =/ so i dont get it.. was it just coincidence the wire came off.. or does it always come off when the regulater goes out?

If you need a window motor for the front, passenger side, I have one with me, it's brand new (...still in the sealded plastic..), made for 4 door 94-97 accords.
Thanks!

Glad it worked out
