After watching this video I just ordered a replacement window regulator for my '09 2500HD from this company. I've watched several videos from 1A Auto for other repairs on my vehicles but this is the first time I've ordered from them. I figured I should throw some business their way for helping me out several times in the past with their excellent youtube tutorials. The website is great by the way; very intuitive and I was quickly able to find the parts that I needed. While I was there I also ordered a rear 3rd brake / cargo light to replace the original one that has been leaking for a while.
Once again, your videos have helped me save money by doing my own repairs. Thank you, and your crew, for your straight-forward instructions without all the excessive gibber-gabber.
Thank you very much for this video! You showed me that I could perform this work, I was able to do it with the tools I already had, in my limited work space. You saved me hundreds of dollars by comparison to what a shop or service center would have charged me!

Only difference on my 08 was the top of the door panel had to clip over a rail on the window seal.Then the bottom clips were installed. Bought the part from you guys . Perfect fit. Thanks for taking the time to do a video.
+Don Batman Thank you for your order. If you would like to leave us a review on Google it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to our reviews section. Have a great day! goo.gl/i5JFNY
just ordered the rear driver side for the truck thanks for the video really did help! i left the window in. but either way i appricate it ordered it off ur website! GG
Although it was a great video, I found out that leaving the window taped up is easier than sliding it down and risking a scratch. It was risky, but letting the part that holds it slide down and installing the new one and bringing it up with the driver door was a lot quicker.. great video though!
Me too!! I had to have the glass down to get the reg in they should probably tell us dumb ass ppl that the connections for the glass need to be loosen on new reg lol
I'm still a little confused. I totally understand the mechanism removal. But , is it necessary to replace the mechanism because the wire cable became detached or can I reattach the wire cable ?
I've watched many of your videos. By far, your step by step process is the best I've seen. You guys are the best, I wish there was a way to sort your videos by entering the model of my truck.
Great video. Bought the part from you, 1Aauto, and your video walked me through each step. However, the applicable vehicles should be from 2008-2013 (not 2008-2012). Model change was in 2014. Only difference in my 2013 was the power window switch had a white retaining clip that took a little time to figure out. Otherwise, your video was right on the money. Thanks!

Thanks for this an awesome video! Very clear and easy to understand and follow! I got my regulator changed and the window actually WORKS! It's so cool! My only problem is that I can NOT, no matter what I do, seem to get the stupid door panel back on! It goes partly together okay (after some wrestling) except for the side where the door handle is. It just refuses to push back to where I can put in the bolts. (I honestly spent over an hour on it this evening!) I keep wanting to think its the door handle cable, because it LOOKS like it might be getting pinched, but I can't find anything else to do with it that won't twist it up.
I have followed the video three or four times and for some reason my window will not roll up without jumping. It goes up with help and sometimes will go up all of the way. I have to pull it up while pushing the button. Is there a certain pattern for the bolts when reinstalling?

+ManOnThe Mun Thanks for watching. If any of our viewers needs to make this repair, we carry the auto repair part shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them www.1aauto.com/1A/WindowRegulators/Chevy/Silverado1500/1AWRG00821?RU-vid&CTA+Comment&Cbi2ebdKH4I
2012 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab Rear Passenger window not working, changed old switch with new switch will not work with new switch from rear position. Works fine from the master control from front driver side any ideas what the problem could be ?
+Vince Petrillo The only major difference would be clearance. If you are unable to remove the regulator with the window down you may have to cut the regulator cable. You will want to make sure you have the new part in hand if you have to resort to that! It can be found here: www.1aauto.com/1A/WindowRegulators/Chevy/Silverado1500/1AWRG00821?RU-vid&CTA+Comment&Cbi2ebdKH4I
is it possible to convert my 2008 ext cab w/t into electric regulators. both windows and locks using factory parts that way it looks original on all doors mine r manual
Do they make that a manual option? I have a 2009 extended cab and I know the window goes down. And I would like to add the option because there's no way to roll it down right now. It's the work truck Edition. But I do know the track is in there? I realize I'll have to cut a hole for the window crank. Thanks for any help I'm just trying to get that window down.
+David Travis We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
I can’t lower my front passenger window but can raise it and I can lower my rear passenger window but can’t raise it from my driver side switch. What could be the issue?
