    Dan you have to take the regulator assembly out to separate the motor from the cable mech. Unfortunately there is no other way to do this.

        Yep, actually one bolt and one nut below that at the top right hand corner (drivers side). Make sure the window is wound down before removing it to make life a little easier for you.

              You really should adjust the door before aligning the window to the seal. Both of these jobs will drive you to distraction to get them right.

              Toptip : use some chalk to mark were the bolts and frame are before you remove them.
