Nylon Window Slider

[Paul17764]

HELP.....

Has anybody any idea where I can obtain a replacement Nylon Window Slider??? It fits on the end of the metal window mechanism ball joint and slides in the channel attatched to the bottom of the window glass....

Lotus want to sell me complete new motor and so do breakers!!!!

Herne Bay eh ?

Hope you're coming to the Lipscomb event at Brands Hatch !

I 'think' I know what it is, if you can advise me a little more on the part I might be able to make something to repair it. Is it part of the lifter mechanism that slides inside the window lift channel ?

If so I'm not suprised they want to see the unit as it wont work without it.

Can easily cut that shape on a bandsaw and finish it with a file, if the shape is too complex you could make a lost wax cast of one and making it out of potting resin which is hard and wont wear the window runner.
