i have an all original 1991 honda civic hatchback with the 1.5L and recently the passenger side window regulator went bad. i bought a replacement off rockauto.com and it is the wrong one, it has no bend to fit around parts of the door, and the spot where you connect the window clips is wrong, so i bought a 1992 civic hatchback window regulator that looked correct off rockauto but it has the same issues. has anyone come across the same problem. if so, any advice of where you have bout your parts?

 

what brand was it. I know someone that buys dornan brand most and likes them.
you could try www.car-part.com for an oem one
parts are getting really hard to find now
I am looking for parts for my 90 crx and its real difficult.
To the point I should probably sell it since its really just a second car for me for emergencies
My Drivers side window has a repair to it I did with panel adheasive and epoxy and some metal.. it works and has for a long time but I don't trust it even after many years heh
Some Honda Tech once told me if the window gets lose on the track don't roll it up.. take the door card off and fix it... happened to me and i snapped the plastic.. not fun.. it was at a really bad time too.


Edit... Know what you do.. Go to the dealer and ask them to look up the part and see what models that part fits .. If it fits a sedan or station wagon or anything else but your specific vehicle.. and different years ... then look on car-part and you might find something OEM.

That or fix it if you can. Probably easier and quicker
