Rear window by gatc

On an 03 Rendevous, my driver side rear power-window clip broke. I previously replaced the clips on the driver's door, so I called the dealer for the clips for the rear window and the parts guy said that you can only replace front clips. He said the rear is all one unit with the regulator! I saw someone else on this forum with a similar complaint but I wasn't sure if your answer applied to front windows only.
I took off the panel and am looking at the broken plastic clip. So why can't I just replace them?

Are the clips for the rear windows the same as the front?

Your "how-to" is a great help!
The GM site shows 1 item "Front Door Window Regulator/Motor". You said you got two clips for each door. I just want to make sure that I will get two clips when I order the one item for my right side front door, not just one clip - and I don't need the motor (yet - knock, knock ). Can you give me a warm fuzzy on this? I really need to fix that window!

Two clips are used on each window---one at the front of the window and one at the rear. My rear one was broken so I only replaced the bad one. Be sure to remove the red reflector on the panel---there is a screw behind it and it must be removed.
clip part # 15286776 and 14286777.
I was able to replace the rear one without taking anything out of the door as the clip just snaps over the track and the barrel must be pushed into the clip HARD. You will hear it when it is in properly installed. If it is not all the way in, thenew clip will break good luck

Im getting ready to replace the clips in the rear right passenger window. I noticed the part numbers in this thread are for the front window. Does this make a difference? Can I order the same clips for the rear window as well?
 
Thanks.

I too am waiting for a answer to find out if the clips are the same for the rear as the front.
I was told by a Buick tech to keep all the felt around the window opening well lubricated with silicone spray. The felt dries out and will grip the window in the up position, making it harder to move.

Does anyone have pics of the regulator assy and the clips that go bad? I have one going bad and wanted to see what I was getting into first. Thanks!

Go to post #36 for pics. Be sure to put window into rubber clamp on clips before trying it out
