I tried doing it myself and it wasn't easy.
The dealer charges by the hour and they said it can take up to half a day at a tune of up to $400 or more.

Any reasonable shop who would know how to fix this?
I called around and no luck.

The problem is not the motor, the motor spins when I pulled it out. I guess it has to do with the regulator or whatever. Thanks.

 

ouch... have you tried looking up the diagrams on line? maybe you can DIY... or your other option is to bring it to a alarm/audio place to get it fixed.

I spent hours. It's hard, especially since I can't see it. I guess I am not really handy enough to do it.

 

When i needed work on my power windows..I just looked up auto glass places in the phone book. Most shops do more than just windsheilds, you should give one a shot.

 

Go to the junk yard and see what a new door will cost. I bet it's under 400 bucks (from the right place).

I considered that option but most of the frost white doors that I saw have way too many dings and scratches.

 

a motor and regulator at the local bone yard or ebay is only about $30. Rip the door padding out and study how it fits in place and read an integra manual. I replaced both on my own a while back when I just got the car and didn't know anything about cars (not even changing my own oil... lol). Don't pay $400 for something that takes 20-30 mins to fix.

You sure it's not the motor? That's most likely the suspect. Have you made sure that all the wires are plugged in properly?

Yep, it's the regulator. The motor is fine.
I guess the glass almost dropping in my hand scared the **** out of me. I suppose I can try again but I am planning on selling this car soon so I can get an S2k so I am looking to get it fixed fast. Thanks.
