New style window regulator? EK manual windows

[sup312wang]

I went to autozone and they ordered a manual window regulator for my ek...when it came in it was a vertical type...hence the oem is a scissor type regulator...

Does anyone know if this is the correct part? and if so how in the hell does it fit?

Thanks in advance for any input.

i would bet that its not the right part. part stores get parts wrong all the time. i have been to the parts store and asked for something and it was wrong clear as day, their computer said it was right but the package stated what car it was for. i would take it back and get your money back. they wouldnt have changed the design of the regulator.

thats what i figured...

called honda today and they want 150 for the regulator...um deal breaker!

The only thing is that every dealer i have researched online has the same vertical style regulator...i don't understand how hard it is to get the right damn part!

The one they give you is for electric they are vertical you need to tell them you need a manual one
