Rear passenger door window jammed (open) and investigation revealed that plastic cable guide had collapsed, causing cable to jam on 'drum'. Dealer quotes $315 for new (regulator?) "You have to buy the complete assembly". Any ideas for componant parts of assembly or second hand?

I had a similar issue and as I was out of work at the time decided to 'fix' it. Which basically means a combination of superglue, cable ties and ss wire holding everything back together. It has been like that for 6 months and I do intend to replace the broken bits one day..........whenever that is.
It still works although I normally lock out the rear window controls in case kids get enthusiastic.

Great minds ........ the super glue works (for the time being). In piecing it all back together I found that the wire control cable had stretched about 3cm which was obviously the cause of the problem in the first case. Cutting off one end and tying a knot tightened everything up and made it workable (again - for the time being).
