We got the rear window regulator kit but are having quite a bit of difficulty getting the cables on properly.

Here are some tips to help with your installation:
- The regulator and glass need to be aligned carefully. The glass should be positioned so that you can fit the regulator arms and cables into place without forcing.
- Before final assembly, loosely fit the cables into the plastic reel and check that they can move smoothly with the motor's action.
- The cable routing often involves looping the cables around specific guide points on the regulator and ensuring they are not twisted or overlapped.
- Use tape or temporary clamps to hold the cables and glass in place during the installation of the regulator bolts to prevent slipping.
- When placing the glass onto the metal studs or strips on the regulator arm, taping the metal strip to glass prevents it from moving out of place.
- The order of assembly is important — typically you install the regulator and the glass together, then fit the cables onto the reel.
- Adjustments can be made by loosening certain bolts slightly to reposition the glass and cables to prevent jamming.
- Watch careful tutorial videos specific to the Peugeot 307 CC rear window regulator replacement. These show the subtle techniques to handle the cables and glass safely.
Your difficulty is common; patience and careful alignment are key. If questions remain, a detailed step-by-step video for the exact model may be the best way to overcome the challenge by visualizing the whole process live.
