Signs are a crank that slips or spins, a window that drops into the door, glass that cocks and binds, or a crunching noise as you wind. A failed regulator leaves the car open to weather and theft. Before you buy, look at the bottom of your old regulator frame: the 1975-and-later regulator has a cranked (bent) extension at the bottom of the frame that suits the late door, while 1968–74 units do not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the crank, armrest, door panel and vapor barrier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLower the glass to reach the lift channel bolts and support the glass while you separate it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompare the new and old regulators side by side before installing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrease the gears and pivots with white lithium grease, and replace hard felt channels and scrapers while the door is open.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun the window up and down several times before refitting the panel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it fit my 1977 Beetle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, 1975–1979 Beetle sedans use this regulator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it fit my 1973 Super Beetle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. 1968–1974 cars use the earlier regulator with different mounting holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeft or right — how do I tell?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLeft is the US driver door (JP-8718-0, OE 111 837 501 K).
