Replaced driver side window Regulator with updated style regulator.
Overall it wasnt a really tough conversion. I was kinda shocked when I noticed that I had to do some drilling on the bottom of the door to mount the newer regulator. I was also pleasantly surprised when I checked the passenger side and found out it had already been updated. :cool: Now my driver side window goes up faster than my passenger side window :smash: !!!

Re: Replaced driver side window Regulator with updated style regulator. (VetteNoob)
When I first got my car I noticed the passenger window was much slower than the driver side. I even bought a new motor for the passenger side, thinking it was on the way out. Before I got it installed I had the driver side panel off and discovered it had been retrofitted. Anybody need a moter for cheap?
I've got to get around to retrofitting the passenger side one day.

Mine had one of each also, new on the passenger side. When I replaced the drivers side, I did not have to drill any holes. Also the window fit the open poorly before the changeover, even after many attempts at adjusting. I installed the new regulator and just bolted up the window and the window fit perfectly. I did have to switch the motor wires around to make the switch work correctly.
