The 1997 BMW Window Regulator Parts in the manual version is made up of a worm gear, several spur gears, linkages and a mechanical plate and bar to support the glass. Using a hand crank the driver or passenger can lower or raise the side window.

The 1997 BMW Window Regulator Parts in the electric version, also called power or automatic regulator basically does the same thing, but it does it using electricity instead of a hand crank.
