86 Window regulator ribbon replacement help
I know this has had to come up before but I am not sure how to find it. My driver's side window regulator ribbon (nylon drive strap) broke. I have the regulator assembly out of the car and I have a new drive strap. How do I install it? Do I have to drill out the two rivets that hold the metal track to the regulator housing? Any help/advice would be appreicated.
