Abstract

A window-lift device for motor vehicles includes a panel-connector, a drive-connector attached to a drive mechanism of the window-lift device for lifting and lowering a window pane, matching fixing pieces for fixing the panel-connector to the drive-connector, and an assembly piece. The assembly piece is mounted to the drive-connector and supports a first one of the fixing pieces in a pre-assembly position. The assembly piece and the drive-connector together provide a feeding opening for guiding the panel-connector to an aligning position in which the matching fixing pieces are to be engaged to fix the panel-connector to the drive-connector.
