    most of the ones im seeing out there( bargain bin and Ebay) are a single "mast" style for the GPs, however mine seems to have a metal rectangular frame style. Same as the one i tried to remove at the JY the other day. (only had a few minutes)

    Single Mast style

    Box style
    http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=72841035867

    which is the correct style...
    local JY charges $27 for these so i might as well get it new... lol

    Then you must have a 2 door GP if you have the square style. The "single mast" style as you say is for the 4 door cars only.

    If it won't come down, then you get up there. get the two bolts out of the window to regulator. Hold the window up and pull the bolts to the regulator and wiggle/fight them apart. Get the regulator out. Then pull the glass. Put your new regulator in and toss your glass back in.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
