ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning window regulator for raising and lowering a windowpane in a motor vehicle door, having a rail attached to the door and a glider slidable in a generally up and down direction on the rail. At least one slide is preferably snugly received in a C- channel to allow for fore and aft adjustment of the windowpane to accommodate for dimensional variations and misalignment of the window regulator and the door componentry. In one embodiment, the C-channel is attached to the windowpane and the slide is attached to the glider. In another embodiment, the C-channel is attached to the glider and the slide is attached to the windowpane. A pin such as a rivet may be used to secure the slide to the rest of the regulator, and the rivet may allow the slide to pivot, providing for inboard and outboard adjustment.
