• 1). Pry the control switch for the window out of the door trim panel using a trim stick or a similar flat tool. The switch plate is normally located on the armrest.
  
  
• 2). Remove all small trim panels near or on the main panel -- this can include the mirror panel, door handle and armrest panels -- and then unscrew the door panel with your screwdriver and pry the panel off the door with a putty knife or similar tool.
  
  
• 3). Remove the door access plate that covers the access hole if needed. There are usually three screws in a triangular pattern.
  
  
• 4). Reconnect the power switch to its electrical connector and lower the window, if needed, to access the window glass bolts. Remove the bolts with your wrench and push/slide the glass out the door.
  
  
• 5). Inspect the wiring; disconnect it from the regulator, feed it out the door and replace it if the wiring is damaged.
  
  
• 6). Unbolt and remove the window regulator from the door. On many newer models since 2003, the regulator is a more permanent fixture in the door and will require professional assistance.
  
  

Installation

• 1). Install the replacement window regulator in the door using its bolts. Connect the electrical connector to the regulator.

• 3). Reconnect the access plate to the door with its screws if needed.
  
  
• 4). Connect the door trim panel with its clips and screws and then reconnect the other trim panels. Reconnect the switch plate with its electrical connector.
