Passenger front window regulator (power) with vent window Hi Do you have this part? And the power window switch (passenger side) in grey? Please PM me as I don't think I get emails on this forum when a post is updated - I spend most time at yotatech. thanks!

Nope :( I had the same problem. I post using PhotBucket on several forums just fine, but here it does not work. I had to post my Diff gasket change write up with pics on another web page and link to it from here because this site doesn't support photos on third party sites....

Guys - sorry, meant to post this earlier, as I opened another thread about this with a link to my BMW forum where I posted the pics: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?t=51569

Thanks Nick! Glad it worked out so well and thanks for all the pointers - this will help me too. I've printed out 2 of the online DIY guides with photos so these, plus your feedback, should make it do able in a weekend.

That's great Nick! Please take LOTS of photos if you can :) I know posting them here is tough, but maybe you could email me them? I'll pass on the Jetta...we just sold my wife's 06 Mazda 3 after 5 months of trying (now down to 4 cars!)....no room. So you're not doing the FIPG for the oil...

Nick - did you get to it yet? I ordered the same kit and the parts DO look nice - a steal if you ask me! I'm likely doing it in October - my buddy who's helping me gets married in early October so I'm, trying to snag him right after....

Not sure about yours but my 87 had "non-illuminated" controls too and it drove me nuts...found out after 6 years of this that there WAS a light behind there - it was just DEAD! If it's the same as mine, it's a cinch to replace. The bulbs are at any auto parts store and come in pairs. Just...

Not sure if it's the same on your generation but my 87 always leaked there when it poured...thought it was the window gasket...turned out it was the rubber gasket for the radio antenna on the passenger fender - there was none (aftermarket antenna)! I found this out after someone snapped off my...

Great - glad to hear the parts look quality - still can't believe how cheap the kit is.... Looking forward to the update - if you are able to please take photos along the way (if you can't post them here, I'd love it if you could email me - I can PM you that...) Good luck - ever since...

Nick - did you get around to the install yet?

wow = that's awesome! let me know how it goes?

Wow Nick that's cheap! I only found a cam kit from them on ebay tonight, but checked out their site....I'll keep my eyes peeled for the timing kit - let me know how it goes! phil

Nick I think you have it all - I've been looking at this too for this year, as I think mine's never had it done in 250K+ miles! Are you going DOA or LC engineering on the kit? Both are about $200.

Before my driveshaft fell off (it was at low speed - I didn't die), I noticed a chirping too. However, mine happened when I was in gear and on the gas....the moment I lifted off the gas while still in gear, the chirp happened. I was driving to my mechanic to have it looked at when the shaft...

Thanks - good tip! It's all in the spirit of cars so I hope the Bimmer guys don't care....will bookmark the VW link just in case :)
