2009 9-3 Broken Rear Window Regulators

[tenmen]

Folks,
I have a 2009 9-3 2.0 Litre Sedan. Both rear window regulators have broken. The motors work fine it's the plastic cable guides that have imploded. I've been searching for replacement parts for 5 months and have been told that these parts are currently not being manufactured by anyone.

Used ones are available however since the issue is that the plastic ages and becomes brittle so it seems kind of stupid to replace with used equipment in this case.

I'm thinking of searching for someone who might be able to replicate the single piece of the regulator that is actually broken, perhaps fabricating it in another material.

What I require is a photo of the piece of the regulator that has broken on my regulators. I've attached a picture of the broken piece of plastic..

Help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks Dave, unfortunately I've attempted to purchase the part new from sites as you've noted above however there is no stock available from anywhere in North America.

Cheers, Bill
