Ok maybe the title is a bit of an over-reaction but...
Clearing the windows this morning doing the old wind-down wind-up again trick to get the dew off, drivers one did it without drama but the passenger window made a bid for freedom on the way back up!
A small grey clip at the top left corner was fired across the car park with some force.
I'm hoping that a repair is easy?
I've never had to do one on a 306 before! Are those little grey clips available separately?

Cables are a nightnare! Far easier to replace the whole lot. I had to once and its impossible to get the cable on both ends of the runner

Thanks for the vote of confidence guys lol.
I have some silicone grease which is ideal for doing window rubbers etc. Is there a guide on doing this annoying little job?

Clip the new bit onto the glass. Wind the window almost down to the bottom, grab the seal/runner and yank it upwards so it comes out of the door. Slide it over the new part and back down into the door then press it all home into the B pillar. Simples

Door card on. With the window down, just grab the seal on the b pillar and pull upwards and out of the grove it sits in. Easy
