    Waitwhat?

    Someone SBC'd the passenger side but not the driver side? Or did you just not open the driver side yet? 'Cause the brackets come in pairs. Don't toss them. Sell them to someone who doesn't trust your free fix.

    V- yes, they did the pass side only and it's a mess.It's def. a SBC bracket though. I already did my fix to the drivers side and it worked great.

    This fix may not be for everyone. Just thought I'd throw it out there for you guys. I use to be big into the VW scene so I have access to a ton of parts. Most techs keep the old clips in a drawer in their box. Also, they are an easy find at a junk yard (at least here). I could always offer to source mod them for people for cheap if this is something anyone is interested. Not looking to make a bunch of money, as it literally takes maybe a minute to mod the clip.

    There's a ton of threads and a few different options for fixing this very common window problem. We'll have to add yours to the list!

    Most (but not all) have found the SBC brackets fix the problems.
