Need a 99 window regulator cable only

Hey Woody,

My right side window regulator was making grinding/cable shredding noises and working intermittently, so I took it apart. The motor's fine and every part of the regulator is fine, except the cable, which had a few torn strands. I trimmed off the shredded parts and re-routed the cable and it's working fine- for now. So, I just need the regulator cable. Do you think that is available anywhere, or do you have one? Called around to the local dealers and they only sell the regulator as a whole unit, of course. Thanks.

Hi Mike, I also only sell the motor and regulator as one too. $50+shipping. Unfortunately I'm out of any good left ones right now.
Thanks Woody

Right side regulator

Okay, thanks for getting back to me.

But wait- you say "Unfortunately I'm out of any good left ones right now"

You don't have any left side ones right now? Or you don't have any right side ones left right now? (Did I get that right?) Now I confused myself more.

Anyway, I need a right side regulator for a 99 Boxster. Got one?

And while I have you on the line, can you or anybody tell me what the row of cotter pins is for? Is that to adjust tension as the cable stretches? I guess you could pull one out at a time, though I wouldn't know which end to start from. I did notice that the one farthest from the motor had the most tension on it..

Woody,

Looking for a decently low mileage suspension setup. Would prefer M030 if possible, but know those are hard to come by used. Need to replace my worn suspension to hold me over for another year or so before the real track upgrade comes along. I have a 98 Boxster.
