Removing Door Panels

How do you remove the rear door panels on a 2000 SE? The window has slipped off the motor or something, and i need to get in there.

Thanks,
Andrew

Oh oh, sounds like the rear window regulator broke :?

This is a common problem with our year of car, poor regulators, I've threw a couple myself. Heres a link to the whole procedure, good luck.

thanks for the link...the window will go down, by it self, without the motor. It just slips down. The motor then cant lift it up. Is this the problem with the regulator?

Yes, the cable retainer (plastic) is broken, as an interm fix so you can still drive around, just c-clamp the window up. You will need a small c-clamp or wood screw as some have done.
