Window winder problems

Post by markbradley »

Hi guys!

The splines have worn on my drivers side window regulator (the bit that the winder joins onto). I replaced the whole mechanism and handle a couple years ago and it's come off again aleady! Any way to fix it without glueing it back on?

Cheers!
