Anyone know where the electric window motors come from ? My drivers side has been getting slower and slower and now wont rise unless it gets a little helping hand - the glass seems to be trying to come up at an angle which results in it jamming in the guides, I've taken the door card off and tried to adjust the mechanism but to no avail so thought I'd try replacing the whole unit.
Secondly, the boot release solenoid has packed up (see earlier thread re S3 boot release) Anyone know who supplied these as I can't find any makers marks on the old unit - just a number 9007. All help gratefully received...

Thanks for the replies guys - Phoned Penninsular this morning and they have hopefully sorted me out a new solenoid for a shade under 19 quid inc VAT and delivery - result. As to the window - looks like a stripdown/clean up of the mechanism is on the cards.
Johno - just how involved was the job - I dont want to dismantle everything only to find that I can't re-assemble / get the right clearances etc etc etc.

Thanks again

Andy
