Default After market window regulator v OEM

Just a little skeptical about this one.. Decided to ask for help. So my widow regulator is pretty much shot, works off and on. This past week it was stuck half way down while i was driving in 18 degree weather...

SO i found this one on ebay for $40 http://www.ebay.com/itm/200685649134...84.m1423.l2649

And im thinking its a good idea, but all the OEM regulators are about $20 - $60 more. I dont want to have to replace this one in 6 months..

Also im looking for a way to mount axillary lights, any good brands of roof racks or cargo carriers? simple styles that wont break the bank?

I would shop www.rockauto.com before I purchased one from ebay. I've been burned by cheap ebay stuff before.

I got an aftermarket regulator at the auto parts store and it's about 2/3 as fast as the OEM one. Other than that it's been fine for going on 3 years now. As far as mounting lights, Kevin's off road makes a light bar specifically for the wj for about $90 or you can get the bar and 4 lights for $170 which is a pretty good deal.

They also offer an option for black powdercoat.

Here's a link to them on our website. Along with a video of the one that we replaced in my 04 Grand. Hope this helps you out.
