Sorry about that but the paypal payment didnt clear until the 4th and they were shipped on the 5th. You should have recieved a tracking number from our shipping system, but sometimes it screws up. Your FedEx tracking number is: 141877111372434

You guys, if you need one of these regulators, Call Corvette Recycling end of story.
I got mine in 3 days without issue. It came just as they described in this thread.
Now, like everything else I buy, I'll let it sit here for three weeks until I get off my lazy **** and install it.
I'll report back after that time.
Thanks goes out to the guys at CR

86, where is that great write up from Kevin? Kevin as in Central Coaster?
as you can see, three weeks is almost up. The car is in the garage right now ready to tear into.

Just in case I sent someone on a wild goose chase looking for info....I got the new regulator in already and I am in the process of hooking up the power to see if the window works somewhat like it is supposed to.
Here is one thing I discovered, the old ribbon style regulator has studs that fit through some inner part of the door at the top. That inner part of the door is riveted in place and to get the regulator out you would need to drill out all of those rivets and then replace them with more rivets or get nuts and bolts to remount that inner piece. Probably a good 45 minute job if you had everything you needed
or
grab those studs with a pair of channel locks and twist them until they break.
The new regulator has screws that go down through that inner part and nuts are tack welded on the inside of the regulator.
shortened the job by about an hour I suppose.
