window regulator problem?

[bmwbmwfan]

I have the same problem! Two days back I heard a loud snap while driving from the drivers side rear and next thing I see was the window sinking down. I managed to hold it (wedging papers to keep it in place, because it was raining) and when I pressed on the switch, I heard the motor work but could not roll back up. The opening button did work however.


I am also wondering, do I need to purchase a regulator or I could I use these clips as well??
