Re: gtv6 power window cable

[Alan Lambert <lechefgerard@domain.elided>]

Pulling the motor, and removing the cable from the window is straight
forward and not hard.

I was lucky enough to get a NOS cable unit and just replaced the cable
wheel which had the cable already wound. The impression I got was that
it is not too hard to rewind one. VERY carefully note how the existing
cable is wound--get a cable (perhaps from a boating store), and rewind
the exact same length in the same way.
