Has anyone had similar luck with this? My passenger window stopped rolling up on my 94 M and I popped out the switch, took out the screw that holds it all together and got in there really good with an old tooth brush. Took all the connectors out and sanded them down really well and reseated them all. Everything worked out better than expected. I love how simple these cars are

Once, I built a raft out of dead monkeys. I had no wood, you see.
