Alright, now that i have my break light problem fixed, now i am starting to work on getting the drivers side window to roll down. I hear the motor going up and down but the window will not budge, even if i press on it. So i took the door panel off and poked around a bit and saw nothing at first, but then as i was rolling the window up and down i saw a metal wire wedge between the gears that you can see looking straight at the door panel. So the problem is my cable snapped! So i guess my question is how do i go about fixing this. Can it be done without taking it to a dealership? the point of me buying the s13 was to learn all i could about it and fix all the problems possible, so is this repair extremly difficult? and where would i go about finding the part for the job? thanks in advance :hammer:
