    He recommends to go and make the cables at a motorcycle place. I dont have the time for it, so I ended up buying a new regulator from ebay.

    Both sides have the same issue... The regulator from the passanger side is too expensive....so if anyone knows of a website to get the cable will be much appreciated.

    I had messed up cables on the passenger door of my NA. I *thought* I got the cables and regulator from Moss or Finishline, but it was about 5 years ago. I remember coiling the cables inside the regulator was a bit tedious and it frustrated me. I wound up installing it backwards on the spool so I reversed the wires at the plug for the motor. It worked great after that! :derp:

    Yea, I've done the coil routine about 6 times now, not too fun... three times were from trying to make my own cable ends. Ugh!
