Removal
1. If the door is equipped with an electric window and central locking (see note at the beginning of this chapter), disconnect the wire from the negative terminal of the battery.
2. After lifting the glass all the way up, remove the inner door panel (see section 11).
3. Secure the glass in the up position with adhesive tape, sticking it to the glass and wrapping it around the door frame (place a rag over the door to prevent the tape from coming into contact with the seal). Do not proceed further until you are sure that the tape can support the weight of the glass.
4. Use a punch to knock out the center pins of the rivets that secure the window lifter, and drill out the rivets with a 3/16-inch drill bit (hand-operated drill) or 1/4 inch diameter (with a power drill) (see illustration).
20.4. Drill out the rivets securing the electric window lifter to the door glass (indicated by arrows)
5. If the door has a power window, disconnect its electrical connector.
6. Move the window regulator until it disengages from the guide. Lift the window regulator and remove it from the door.
7. To disconnect the window lift motor from the mechanism, drill out the rivets securing the mechanism and the window lift motor.
Installation
8. Insert the window lift mechanism into place in the door and engage it with the frame.
9. Secure the window lifter to the door using a hand riveter and 3/16-inch or 1/4-inch rivets, or use 1/2-inch bolts to secure the regulator.
10. Connect the electrical wiring connector (if equipped).
11. Install the inner door panel. Connect the cable to the negative terminal of the battery.
