Pull on the armrest hard to unlock the pull cup retainers. Rock the door trim panel (1) upwards, starting at the rear, while lifting upwards to remove. Disconnect the door trim panel wiring harness.

Now is a good time to remove the armrest pull cup retainers from the inside of the door trim panel.

Use needle nose pliers to compress the 360 clip. Pull the 360 clip out of the nylon nut on the door trim panel.

Install the 360 clip to the nylon nuts on the inner door panel by sliding the 360 clip down into the grooves in the nylon nuts.

Remove the push in retainers at the upper corners of the water deflector. Push the wiring harness through the slit in the water deflector. Carefully peel the water deflector away from the door, being careful not to damage the sealing strip.


Here is the window regulator, by now youve got about 25 minutes in this already.
