Default "Passengerside window problem

My car has been sitting for awhile in my garage, its an 85. I went to roll down the pass window and it didn't budge, it only made some click noise each time I pushed the up/down button, what do you guys think?
thanks

Your Vette uses a ribbon to run the window up/down; it sounds like yours may have broken.

You can either replace it or get an upgrade kit from one of the popular Vette parts houses to upgrade to the later model regualtor sytle controllers.

I agree with 65Z01. If it's more than a ribbon, I have a complete assembly FS. I upgraded my windows because my driver's side went out. Thus I have a good passenger's side if anyone needs it. It will fit 84-e86.

Your selling both the driverside/passenger side parts, what all is included, how much r u asking? and is it an easy installation, My door panels are already off so I can see inside, just not familair how to get behind that thin metal wall--thats a tough one! ALSO just a question, how in the world do I put new lock cylinders into the door handles ? That seems like a job way out of my reach, cause they came with some clip that I don't know how it fits in with the cylinder. I can't keep my hands inside that door around all those parts for more than a minute, cause its painful.....thanks
