Default Feeler FS: Manual window regulators

Any interest in these? Found them laying around, good working shape. Bolt-in to a 944, cut weight and simplify things. $125 shipped?

I'm going to be doing this swap in the future.
Unfortunately, I already have too many projects on this car at the moment, so I'd rather not have something else to distract me from the higher priority jobs

Mmmmm, manual windows. I think I'll need a set eventually.

Slightly off topic story: 7 or 8 years ago I picked up a rental Ford Focus at night. Pulled up to the guard shack on the way out and couldn't figure out how to roll the window down. After frantically looking around the interior for a bit I glance up to see the guard (who appeared to have recently arrived from a 3rd world country) with a bemused look on his face making a circular motion with his arm...who knew any car built in the 2000's had manual roll up windows!?

They are different but they both bolt on . If you put early winders in a late door you have 2 positions to bolt it on in , one will bring the winder lower than the factory hole in the late panels and the other will not allow to wind down the window fully ,it sticks out 1" . I have 924 winders in my '86 944.

The whole regulator assembly is different.

Sorry, they are early version, off a 924. As stated above though they will still work on late cars but the door panel will have to accomodate it.

you just have to make a hole in the panel about 1" lower than the factory pre-drilled one, if you didn't cut the vinyl already in that place .The rollers are the same .

My 1995 Formula had manual windows and it sucked. If I was trying to save as much weight as possible, maybe, but otherwise I'd rather have power windows.
