If you get a copy of the parts list from the Downloads section, you will have access to part numbers. I've priced a few things from Merlin @ St Charles (800-727-8066) and so far the final cost has been what is shown on the price list you downloaded X 1.377. Merlin will provide FREE next day shipping (or next day + 6-8 weeks) if you mention this website!

I need to replace both of my switch panels but hesitate on buying used. Both of mine are loose because whoever replaced the SBC Window Brackets to fix the "twisting window issue" didn't follow the instructions and accidentally broke some tabs off both when they removed them. Unfortunately, both sides are in such bad shape, I don't know if I also need to replace the door panels to completely fix the issue. In other words, there may be broken tabs on my red/black door panels too, but without one in good condition, I can't tell. (Door panels are about $320 each - YIKES!)
I wondered about the "regulator" description too. I didn't think the electronics under the window buttons were considered the regulator, but I don't actually know where the regulator is??

I accidently cracked mine recently........letting it dangle while I removed the door panel and replaced my rubber window track....and the door accidently closed...pinching the black plastic handle between the sill and door and slightly cracking the pull handle part... (yes I KNOW it detaches but pinching that thing is a real beotch for me!)

So....after a total fiasco trying to fix it with super glue which resulted in nothing but glued fingers and lots of cuss words....I called Merlin... told me a new handle WITHOUT the ELECTRONICS would be $67!! ...just the freakin' plastic!!.....(so the part must be available)....so with tail between legs, I wrapped black electric tape around it....for now....
