    Yes....i still make these brackets as they are ordered !! I think every VX will need these over time as the plastic one's will brake at some point.

    What a difference!!

    Just wanted to thank you for making these brackets. Both windows on the VX I bought were broken and horrible (the passenger side actually fell into the door the first time I tried to roll it down.....in the rain...).

    I bought the brackets before the VX even arrived and this weekend took the time to put them in. I used a cheap epoxy for glass/metal and it only took me about an hour and a half to compelte and that is only because I put on bracket on backwards and had to remove and re-attach it. It was very simple if you have any mechanical apptitude (and tools) at all.

    The end result.... my windows go up and down flawlessly, no binding, no falling out of tracks, no issues at all!

    I cannot speak to longevity but it sure seems to be fantastic so far.

    Thanks again well worth the small price you are charging!

    I'm glad I'm ordering before you get tired of making them!!! If you end up having to make 4000 sets I hope you at least get rich! I'll try taking some more pictures to either show everyone how do do it right or to ask for help in finding out what went horribly wrong!
