    Thanks for the video. My problem was with the inside stopper coming off the window. Would not go down, but up too far... saved me a ton of time.

    Great video, there is also an adjustment point for the top of the rear guide on top of the door near the door lock pin, you didn't mention it and it maybe why you have that tiny gap. I am in the process of fitting new lhs glass to mine as it was broken when i bought the car, I wasnt able to locate a new one in australia except for a slightly later model. This normally would not fit as the glass is larger on the rear lower area. Ended up cutting the channel that the glass fits too and now I have lost the 2 front steel brackets so will need a solution there lol.

      Hi, it depends on the parts. Most of them can be found on RockAuto, the head however I have only been able to find a new replacement from China, or Suzuki. Suzuki is way out of my acceptable price range, and the Chinese ones are reasonably priced but have a long lead, a month or more. Let me know if that doesn't answer your question

    Can you make a video with a better quality? my windows is above the rubber on the roof, need to adjust it, please help

      If the window still goes up and down, its an adjutment to the 2 limits which are the cadmium colored 10mm bolts. Lower the window, loosen the bolts enough to slide the bolts down, then retighten and test the window up limit. My guess is that one or both of the tabs on the window fell off, as i described. This will involve full disassembly as I show.
