Default 2000 Kia Sephia Window Regulator

Hello folks, I've joined your forum and came to ask a question or two.

First: Where can I find a Driver's door window regulator with motor? I have searched every website in the first 3 search result pages in Google when i look up "Kia Sephia Parts" to no luck.

Second: Where do you buy parts for the Kia Sephias? The junk/ salvage yards around here don't have any Kias, the Kias are still running the roads.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

PS: I used the search feature and looked for "Window regulator" in the 2nd Gen Sephia forum, and got no results. (I'm a member of other forums and always search for answers before I post a new thread)

Welcome to the forum.

You're one of a rare breed - using the search function

I don't have any suggestions for places to buy parts, but maybe if you place your whereabouts in the avatar it may help others make suggestions.

Alright. I'm in Upstate, SC. I have found a salvage yard with a 01 Kia Sephia, but it doesn't have power windows. They wanted to sell the entire vehicle, and not part it out.

Thanks for all the help folks!
I have fixed my window regulator myself, and it even works 100% better than the passenger side does! I will be more than happy to make a "text only" tutorial on how to fix them yourself, I do not want to make one with pics because that sucker is in there, working, and really don't feel like taking it apart just to do the entire thing over again. Let's just say that i really had a time getting the tension back on the steel cables, and suggest to anyone who wants to attempt a regulator repair have a vise, leather gloves, and a pair of dikes... You're gonna need them. (or just really want them like I did...)
