Civic EG

Is there any way i can adjust it so my window lines up with all the door rubbers correctly, my car was recently broken into by prying the window so now it doesnt allign correct, ive tried taking out the window and putting it back in but it seems to keep getting off track and harder to roll up,

What exactly is the window doing? Is it falling forward as you roll it up?

it rolls up crooked leaving alittle gap open by the mirror, also not letting the window not fully shut like to the top into the rubber moldings

Like this? but obviously not as extreme



Replace the window regulator, and reinstall the glass run channel. (Only need to Replace the glass run channel if it is damaged)

Does it look like this mine is doing it too

yah exact same thing, less gap then yours, pretty dangerous having a openning, can easily be pulled open with just fingers =/... anyone have a solution

The windows can easily be pulled down even if you didnt have this issue. But really if a thief really wants your car theyd just break it OR use another 92-95 civic key to unlock your door(resolve that issue with rear door handles from a sedan, they dont have key holes.)

thanks for the info, sounds like a good idea on sedan door hands and the window regulator,

yeah i had this problem for a while.
solution: i took my door panel off
removed the few bolts holding the assembly in
removed the 2 holding the window in
pulled them both out of the door
gave them i look over, if bent, replace
put in back in bolted it up
lubricate the tracks up and slide the window
in the top following the tracks
and finally put the 2 bolts back in the window

it took me a few hours but it works just like new
hope this helps

P.S. this is what the alphabet would look like if Q and R
were removed

but seriously grease the tracks and it wont happen again

so your saying any 92-95 civic keys will open another? if thats the case i just wasted money on a new ignition and door locks because i have an old 92-95 key but lost my current set riding a damn horse in the mountains.

Oh yeah. One thing not good about our cars.

My buddy had a party at his house a few weeks ago, he's friends with a lot of import drivers (Integras, Civics, 240sx, etc) and he was able to jiggle the locks on half the cars there with his EG key. Auto mechanic friends have also told me screwdrivers work if properly implemented. Depressing, to be sure.

How would one get in their car if they used rear sedan handles? Door poppers? I don't know if I'd trust a battery to open my door. Plus, what about the hatch lock? Get rid of it and only use the cable release?
