My driver's window made an awful noise before i replaced those. They were a snap (literally). It took more time to get the door panel off. You'll need a screwdriver, phillips for the 2 screws that hold things onto the door panel, and flat helps to pry the sliders free from the window regulator.

Wow, an inexpesnive part! Thanks for the suggestion/link, I will pick a couple of these up as well. I think regular use really keeps things smooth and quiet, the front windows and doors are more silent than the rears for me.
