Window regulator interchagebility

We just got a 65 MGB. The window regulators along with the glass have been removed. I need to know what years will interchange. I also need the vent windows as well.
Any input?
Thanks

'62~3 to mid-'66 for sure, not certain if the '66~7 is the same but that's likely. After that there were different minor "safety" changes.

I'd like to know myself. I just took the regs outta my 74 GT doors and wanted to use them in the 67. The 67 ones are real tough and I already broke a handle.

'74 to '67 is a no go.....Think of it this way: where's the handle located, high or low? Early cars - high; later cars - low

I've got hundreds of sets of regulators stacked in 3 places: pull handle, early cars, late cars......Moss catalog shows the breakpoint but I don't remeber it off hand.

I'll have to keep that in mind. Ive got 3 sets for 73-74 but no extra's for the 67. I'll have to see If can venture into the door cavity and grease them somehow.

I'll be contacting you about the regulators and probably some more stuff as well. Thanks Tony.
