window winders

[kierbear]

im desperatly in need of new window winders cause the ones i had were just crappy plastic and broke off fairly quickly, especially when they heated up in the beaut HB sun! instead of just getting new ones and waiting for them to break again, whats the alternative? can i  do something to make the crap ones better, or can you buy other ones that are better that will fit with my car?

good question! they are famously weak and something a bit more rugged would be the bees knees!

They switched to metal winders in the late model Chrysler Avengers. I guess they were having too many handles breaking.

You would have to change the whole regulator probably because the Hillman uses a big hex shaped part which locks in to the handle, and the later Chrysler Avengers have a more traditional spline type setup.

hmm might try DYI something. im on holiday with nothing to do for a month so no doubt i will think of something, especially as mine just broke yesterday and i want to remedy it asap

borrow from rear doors unless that's already been done?

[kierbear]

ones from back are already munted. will find miscellaneous avenger parts and fix onto winders. rofl

i fi had enough badges i could use the big "a" from the avenger badge lol that would look cool but probably not function very well

if i cant think of anything creative to do to fix mine, ill let you knw aaron lol. i contacted the guy that left me a note on my car and he asked if i wanted front or back winders? taking the piss?
