dude theres a sc400 at the junk yard over here with both window motors if u need i can find out how much they are prolly cheaper than buying them online...

i did mines before, just remember to take it easy on the door panel..i messed mines up the first time. u have to pop the lil panel off behind the door unlock handle..(i didnt do this and yeah pretty much ripped my door panel off lol..) the two bolts closer to the door jams. about 3 or 4 on the bottom, two under the armrest thing, pop the door switch up, and pull the courtesy light loose and disconnect it..panel should come off.. then unbolt the regulator (3 bolts), and u have to loosen two bolts from the window (square shaped use a 14 or 15mm cant remeber open ended) should come out. oh yeah theres also two bolts one on top n bottom of that track.. hope i kinda helped goodluck!!! just take your time.

Did you replace them? I just bought a 400 and both of the door panels are missing along with the handles. I have'nt been able to find replacements for them anywhere. Any ideas where I can find some new ones short of going to the dealership. Please don't say junk yard, been there tried that no luck.
