Abstract: An assembly including a door panel, a window regulator housing component, and a window regulator drive system component. The door panel is secured to the window regulator housing component by a deformed portion to provide a subassembly. The deformed portion is utilized to releaseably secure the window regulator drive system component to the subassembly via a fourth component.

Abstract: An assembly includes a first, second and third components having respective first, second and third holes. The assembly further includes a locating feature assembled into the holes having a small portion and a large portion that provide a shoulder therebetween. The locating feature further includes a fixing portion near the small portion to secure the second component relative to the assembly and a fixing portion near the large portion to secure the third component relative to the assembly. The small portion is located in the second hole to align the locating feature relative to the second component, and the large portion is located in the third hole to align the locating feature relative to the third component. The second component is aligned relative to the third component, and the first component is situated between the second and third components and between the shoulder and the second component.

Abstract: A vehicle door includes a window regulator motor and an inner panel. The window regulator motor further includes a connector housing which houses electrical connector terminals. The connector housing is sealed against the inner panel of the vehicle door via a diaphragm seal.

Abstract: An assembly including a first, second and third component having respectives first, second and third holes, the assembly further including a locating means assembled into the first, second and third holes, the locating means having at least a small diameter cylindrical portion which is concentric relative to a large diameter cylindrical portion to provide a shoulder, the locating means further including a fixing portion proximate the small diameter portion for securing the second component relative to the assembly and a fixing portion proximate the large diameter portion for securing the third component relative to the assembly, in which the small diameter cylindrical portion is located in the second hole in order to align the locating means relative to the second component, and a large diameter portion is located in the third hole in order to align the locating means relative to the third component, thereby aligning the second component relative to the third component, in which the first component is situate

Abstract: A door panel assembly including a door panel having a first and second side, a drive mechanism being mounted on the first side of the door panel and having an output shaft on which is mounted a window regulator cable drum, and a window regulator cable drum housing being mounted on the second side of the door panel and being made of metal and having at least one integral cable support.

Abstract: A door inner panel assembly including a door inner panel and a window regulator drive means, the window regulator drive means having a drive portion and an output shaft projecting from the drive portion, the inner panel having an abutment portion for co-operation with the drive portion and a shaft support portion for co-operation with a portion of the shaft remote from the drive portion, the abutment portion and shaft support portion being integrally formed from the same material.
