window regulators - 2 for 4

In my '99 A4, I put the driver's side window down a bit (to spit :),
and when I tried to put it up, *CRACK!* Something snapped. The window
would not go up. The glass is loose in its track. Sigh. That's 2 out
of the 4 window regulators on the car.

I've closed the gap with packing tape (the same roll I used the last
time a regulator broke). It was +8F when it broke. They're forecasting
20-30 inches of snow over the next 2 days.  Perfect quattro weather,
if the snow doesn't come through the open window.

If you are keeping score, that is one more reason my next car might
be a Honda.
