Abstract
A cable guide for use with a window regulator assembly includes a body with a first rail support surface and a second rail support surface in a guide rail region, and a cable support surface and a cable retention arm in a cable region. The first rail support surface is configured to pass through an aperture in a guide rail and be placed on a first side of the guide rail and a cable retention arm configured to receive a tensioned drive cable of the window regulator. The cable guide with the first and second rail support surfaces is steadily secured to the guide rail by utilizing the pushing force from the tensioned drive cable. The aperture is located along the guide rail such that the aperture is out of the slide path of the window carrier of the window regulator assembly.
