INTEGRATED WINDOW REGULATOR AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

A window regulator including a panel and a guide rail. The panel may define a speaker aperture that may be configured to receive at least a portion of the speaker. The guide rail may be integrally formed to the panel and configured to carry a slider. The slider may be configured to move along the guide rail to move the window between a first position and a second position. The guide rail may include an aperture-region portion that may extend across the speaker aperture in a first direction. The aperture-region portion may include a first sidewall and a second sidewall that may each extend in a second direction that may be substantially orthogonal to the first direction.
