'Ey up.
The cable on my near-side electric window snapped today :-(.
Research reveals that, unlike mk1’s, the cables aren’t available on their own and the whole regulator assembly has to be replaced. Hmm, not cheap - £112 from MX5 Parts.
Found this replacement on Ebay, though - quite a bit cheaper, and includes a replacement motor too. Anyone ever bought anything from this seller? Are the parts any good? Any other sources I need to be looking at?
Thanks.
Alright Garath
That units looks like the Mk 1 after market units i use for the 1’s, but that unit being for the MK 2’s, if it is the same unit make, then it is sh*t hot buddy smoother and faster than the OE unit, and glad to see that they have made them for the 2’s.
M-m
Cheers, Wayne - sounds good.
Anyone else got any feedback on these aftermarket regulators?
No-one else?!
Bloody hell! What’s happened there?! I go off on holiday for a week, thinking I’ll order a regulator from that Ebay seller when I get back … and now that I’m home, the price has jumped from less than £70 to £200! Sod that for a lark.

Fitted and working nicely. Thanks, Brian.
Mx5revive,
Do you have any more of these in stock? There was a ping on my way home today and the cable has gone - the window is now held up by several cable ties.
Hi,
pretty sure we have at least another, will check in the morning for you, may be you can call us on 01733 271457.

Ok, thanks. How much would it cost if you do have one available?
Hi,
they are £59.99 + postage. Are you looking for MK2, if you are we have these in stock ready to go, if it’s a MK1 I will have to check but 99% sure we have these also.

Better late than never, but for future generations I just looked for similar and according to MX5parts the answer is yes.
