Good article. I went through this yesterday. A couple of notes for others:

1. The rivets were difficult to drill out because there wasn't a good way to keep the drill centered. I used an oversized bit (about the size of the outer diameter of the rivet) to drill the rivet down slightly until it was dished and a smaller bit could be used to make a pilot hole. After making a pilot hole, I went back to the larger bit until the rivet came apart. I used needle nosed vise grips on the back of the rivets to keep them from rotating while drilling.

2. Make sure you adjust the regulator after installation. Adjusting the arm with the slotted hole will help keep the window aligned while it travels.
