Broken window switch replacement

[chairmankaga]

The right rear window switch in my '07 M35 broke free recently. Does anyone know if it's possible to just replace a single switch (it's really just the toggle/rocker that activates the switch) without replacing the entire panel?

It looks like it is sold as a complete assembly with the finisher panel. There are a number of used ones on ebay that are relatively cheap.

my nephew has a 2011 nissan Sentra. His switch went south, I found many sights that offered off brand (non OEM) replacements cheap. Picked up one well under $50.00 about a year ago, works like a charm.

I guess I'll just do some shopping for the whole panel then!

Just to clarify, the toggle is for the right rear window, got it. But is the broken one located at that door or at the master switch at the driver door?

I've done it in the past where I borrowed the toggle from one of the other doors to bring it to the driver door - since I mostly drive solo and want to be able to control the windows from my seat.

So it's possible, and I'd say cheaper... but definitely takes more time than replacing the entire panel on one door.

It's the driver's switch to control the right rear window. Part of the panel with all of the window and lock switches.
Third-party replacements mentioned? Even boneyard pulls are $90 or so on eBay, or about $160 new.

I havent heard of any 3rd party vendors for these. In my experience, Nissan switches don't seem to have issues like GM ones.

What are you willing to pay for the part, shipping included?
I know a guy who might be willing to sacrifice his OEM spare if he can get your broken one to tinker with.

Minr broke as well, it is called the master switch which controls all 4 windows on the driver side. Unfortunately, need replace whole module, found some on ebay for 90 bucks. I will leave it alone for now as can stick my pinky in there to roll window down. I will buy one once I get more important things done (brakes, control arm and alignment)

Does anyone know if the switch set from the G35 sedan might work? It looks identical but costs $30.

The harness connector looks the same. The layout looks the same. I might order it and find out.

Did you ever find out if the G35 one works? The Driver window switch cap in my M45 popped off and wont fit back on
