What about these ebay ones:

i had the same problem with my 4.8is a year later when i got it the back window fell i heard a strange sound as well. months later the other back window fell too. i got it fixed with the warranty it ruined my tented windows though.

ok so is ebay a BAD idea? I emailed the seller to see if those are OE or not (which might not be a bad thing if they are not since they consistently seem to fail). My pops told me the LH front (driver) window has had this problem 3 times before and LH front (passenger) window twice. I have also heard they seem to fail at the same time due to age wear and tear, etc...

I think I am going to buy this one even though it is not OEM:

You can get an OEM one from Morristown BMW for about the same price.

same thing happened to my X5 last week, had it remplaced under the CPO Wa.

Same thing happened to me. I thought that it was the regulator - bought one - then took the door apart and foun that the clip holding the winodw and regulator were broken - wen to the stealer and paid 1.00 a piece. All is well now.

Here is the clip that breaks.

84 bones shipped? I would rather use OEM i guess, they should be emailing me a quote tomorrow.

hmm the passenger side is def something related to clips it appears, but i don't see how the driver side one is. It only comes up a couple centimeters than quits. I guess I should take the door panel off and take a look before i go buying a regulator.

Crevier shipped me OEM rear regulators for about $68.00 plus shipping. OEM Front regulators from Crevier were about $90.00 plus shipping if I recall my previous order correctly.
