So, my wife was rolling down her window in the winter to open the gate at her work. Now, she's no amazon woman, so it was surprising to hear that the entire handle broke off. Not just the handle, but the pin that goes into the nether regions of the door. Luckily, some guys at her work were able to help her force the window back up to keep the snow out. Since it was winter, we could survive with the window constantly closed, but eventually things started warming up, I had to fix it. Being a cheapskate, I was able to go down to the junkyard, find the part, and replace it myself. But it would have cost a LOT more if I took it to the shop. I couldn't just replace the pin, I had to replace the entire window-operating unit. Just a pain!
