drgmizu Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 got a question.....wonder if anyone can help...i know it's a stupid question...but before i start to tackle this problem..i want to ask first.....my window jam is all f@cked up on the driver's side....i just got this car and i'm pretty sure it was repoed... anyways....my window goes up at an angle and it keeps going off window jam track...plus...my window is way off...meaning....it's pretty easy to move around..as if it's not locked into place...so....i want to know if it's a bitch to pull apart my door panal and is it hard to adjust my clamps that push my window up and down......oh yeah....it's a 96 civic ex coupe.....all power......please send me some pointers of what not to do and what to look for........other than that....thanx.
..SSR.. Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 No, pulling the door panel off is easy. Should be a quick and easy fix. Anything off will be obvious.
drgmizu Posted September 22, 2003 Author Posted September 22, 2003 ok....it was a piece of cake taking off the door panel and discovering what the problem was....it turned out that one of the two channels that guide the window up and down wasn't bolted on to the frame of the door...which...in return...caused my window to go up in a 45 degree angle..... so.....i naturally...got the bolt..washer...and locknut...to fix it...hey...no problem.........yeah..right......the rubber channels....are so screwed up...that the window keeps over rididng on the outside of the rubber channel....after about 2 1/2 hours of wasting my time of trying to strategically place my window...it dawned on me that i have to change my rubber channels that guide my window up and down........ now.....since..i'm a poor bastard with a fun car.......what am i looking at for some guy to put in new channels for me in my door...should i go to the honda dealer and get rapped like a prison inmate..or should i find some window guy shop......any suggestions...would be very helpfull thanx.
..SSR.. Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Take the widnow out and put it in behind the rebbuer seals. Had to do that on my friends car.
drgmizu Posted September 22, 2003 Author Posted September 22, 2003 ok..like....replace the rubber seals....or just try to seet the window in the preexsiting seals.......because...the preexsiting seals.....are shot
..SSR.. Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 If they're shot then your question answered itself.
drgmizu Posted September 23, 2003 Author Posted September 23, 2003 yeah.....their shot...so...where's a good place to go to order the rubber channels online.....if u have any resources or links to go to...let me know....also....if anyone knows where to go in or around the covina area of los angeles....let me know thanx
joecollins2 Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Here's a good website for little orders like that: www.yourlocalhondadealer.com BTW: That was a joke. Just either go to your dealer or a junk yard for a part like that since you probably won't need a performance window seal:D
