    Its the plastic "seat" for the glass that runs on the window regulator. snapped in two.and I called the dealer to which he told me "they come attached to the glass" SOOOO no replacement part for this other than NEW WINDOW? for now I have it very shady patched up. the window was not having any issues so I wonder if this has happen to anyone else?

    I've been working for Lexus for awhile now and we see this commonly. The plastic tabs appear to be glued to the glass in two spots and when they snap the window glass does not sit in the track properly. Unfortunately only fix is a new window glass.
