Windo Regulator Fixings

  1. #1
    Hello. I have a Saxo Desire 2003 and am beginning the process of replacing the driver side window regulator. Door panels removed, I see that the regulator mechanism looks like it might be riveted on from the outside. Am I right in thinking this and if so is it a case of cutting the rivets off and replacing with nuts & bolts ?

    Thanks in advance,

    DAVE.

    Thanks for the reply. Got them off - turns out they were pop riveted from the inside.

    Just another quickie.

    Are the 5 door model window regulators the same as the 3 door model window regulators ?

    Possibly smaller on the 5 door.

    5 door ones are 5 door specific, the cables are different lengths because the 5 door doors are shorter.

    Thanks for the replies, chaps. I'm now finding used 5 door ones quite hard to find.

    Cheers.
