Do you have any idea how much it will roughly cost if I let the dealer do it. Is it some thing easily to replace like I can consider doing it myself?

Thank you

Somewhere between 1.5 & 2 hours labor. Anything more than 2hours the shops getting greedy!

Update: Have windows regulator job done today.

Bought from ebay(Genune VW Part) $59.99 + Free Shipping = $59.99 AutoGlass installed for me $100 + 6 tax = $106.00

------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Cost = $165.00

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The autoglass person did the job in 1 hour 20 minutes.

VW quote me 350 US dollars(Part and Labor), so I saved $185
