Einleitung
We seek to develop a trouble-free step-by-step repair guide for a 1999 Buick Century that meets the criteria set by IFIXIT. Not only is our purpose to repair a failed window regulator and motor for personal and security reasons, but also to demonstrate and breakdown to the inexperienced how to make said repair at a more economically inclined price.
