I noticed I wasn't alone when it seemed like my replacement power window regulator cables were too short for my 2008 VW Beetle.  After reading a few things on the internet, some people said the trimmed the metal cable housing to get them to fit.  I will show what I did to make it work for me.  Also, after I made the video I realized I put the regulator on backwards...I'm going to reverse that.  Make sure you keep track of where everything goes before you take it apart!
