Title: Replacing window regulator assembly.
Post by: Lewo on June 17, 2021, 08:04:31 pm

Just looked on Pelican parts but due to being incapable of taking in information at the mo lol I just wanted to check if I need to remove the door panel and remove the motor as well as the door skin to fit the new regulator assembly?
Cheers.

Yes, you have to do all these steps, unfortunately. The situation is much more complex than it seems. The video shared by a participant of this forum is really useful, but the process is complicated. I could not do all this work by myself. Everything started from removing the sun shades for car (https://snapshades.com.au/) to the engine, door skin, etc. So, if you make a wrong step, you can end up in a very bad situation and make everything worse. That's why I would still recommend you to ask for the help of a specialist. He will do all this work for you with great care, and thus you will not have any trouble.
