damn I had the same thing. My AC **** came off, and my driver's side window takes forever to go up, especially when to do it 2 & 3 at a time.

the 94: Nothing. Anything that has gone wrong with it is due directly to it "suffering from improvement."

the 89: This is the best car on the planet.

If I start listing all the **** I've replaced, H-T will run out of bandwidth, so maybe its not such a good idea.

my driver side actuator.. and the driver side power window: i fixed that though, i pulled out the track, and the top rubber part inside the metal track sticks to the window when it slides, so what i did was tape off the top of the rubber part with lots of electrical tape . works great now, even faster than my passenger one which has no issues.
