Product Details and Features

Installation Notes and Tips
Before installation, verify the window motor location matches the front right or rear right side of your Chrysler PT Cruiser. Ensure the wiring harness matches the 2-wire configuration. The motor mounts using three through holes, so proper alignment is critical for secure fitment. Follow the included instruction sheet carefully to avoid damage to the motor or window regulator.
