    Window Switch Has Officially Died

    So ever since I bought my Z the window switch always gave me a hard time, only with my specific window however. The switch for the passenger side works perfectly.

    Being that my car is a daily driver it's kinda important to have a working window and the switch doesn't even remotely move the glass now.

    So I looked online, went to the local shop, and I can't find a replacement. I was wondering if anyone can help me out and lead me to a website that sells oem replacement? I know I can get a used one that will hopefully work but I'd rather not take those chances if I don't have to. Thanks guys

    If you have a local old school electronics repair shop (rather than a auto repair shop), they could probably do it.
    It's usually just worn/ corroded contacts inside of the switch, not a difficult job if you're at all familiar with switch internals.

    New, they're around 140.00 from Nissan
    Steve at 300zxpartsforyou.com has one for 29.00 with a 30day warranty.

    Yeah, I'm thinking about ordering from him. Even if his doesn't work well either, I can always bring one to a shop to be repaired. Thanks guys, I was really stressed with this today.
