New or used? I see a bunch of used ones, but no new (at a quick glance). I'm told that a local junkyard has them for $10. I haven't verified. It'll probably be a couple of weeks before I get around to checking.

I'm also kind of curious how long the "fix" will hold up.

All used. Rockauto only lists regulators for the front. Only new i see are for the Grand Cherokee. Amazon is likely the same. If youre questioning used regulators, and own a cordless drill, take the battery along with some makeshift jumpers to the parts yards to make sure the window motors work. Skip ahead to 1:25-1:30.

Not so much worried about them working since it's easy to test. Just would rather buy new if possible at a reasonable price. I was so busy all week I forgot all about it. I drove the jeep several times last week and had the windows up and down each time. So far, the temp fix is holding up.

The brand new $38 Ebay front regulator works like a champ so far.
Window is fast as hell, as well.
