HI there,
We do not have anything online as of yet.

However, there are certain things that you would need.
The FSM/factory service manual is the best thing you can have.

Second, it will show you details that others do not.

I will attempt to find something for you.

Allthebest, c4c5

Midamerica sells the regulators that replace the ribbon style ones. The instructions are online at their site.

I remember years back on my 1984 Vette the windows fell down as I was driving, the plastic pin on the track either wore out or snapped.

The replacement was an upgrade from a 1986 model, completely different and for sure better design. I remember doing it in the dead of winter and the package came with install instructions. It was pretty simple but if I recall I had to drill a couple holes for it to fit in correctly. Did not take long using basic tools.

Good Luck
