I use pure silicone spray. roll the window down and use the plastic tube to spray in the front and rear channels then roll the window up and down a couple of times. Make sure the glass is properly riding in the channel as I have seen them jump off track.

Great! Thanks for the info. I thought it was silicone spray, however I wasn't 100% sure! Does the spray leave a nasty film on the window or does it even get onto the glass?

Ordered a DS window regulator from seattle-guy pm eBay. It was $26.10 shipped to my bush. I lubed the piss out of the channels on bothsides and now have that 'fresh gun oil' similar from the silicone spray. Man the silicone spray sure makes them purty winders go up and doinard faaster that a irrate wife chasin a loose chickin threew the creek down yars way.

I used Silicone spray but it smelled like gun oil afterwards. It's the 'Liquid Wrench' brand of spray.

After I was done, I wiped down the windows and used Windex and they cleaned right up!
