My passenger side window motor has died, I've put power to the motor itself and nothing. So whats the secret to getting the motor out. I've searched and haven't had much luck. I'm sure I'm going to bleed a lot but could use any advice as to the easiest way to do this. Thanks

take bolts out for bottom wing window support...drill out the rivets with a 3/8 or so drill...if your getting bolts that is the easiest way to reinstall but if not just get some rivets and you will need washers that fit tight to the riviet to be able to lock them in to hold the motor...should take you about 30 min just did mine 2 weeks ago

I seem to remember that I got to all of my bolts except one and I had to drill a 3/8 hole in the inner door panel and the motoe came right out, all I needed was the plastic pieces that worked in the gears.

just replaced mine a week ago. its trick but you can get a wrench on the three bolts, in a star partern, that hold the motor to the regulator window, and the motor comes right off. tricky, got to put your arm in the dour to get the bottom one, which I do last, so you can rotate the entire motor to get a better swing without the other bolts.

Look at the door.you will see 3 dimples where the motor is.drill them out so an 8mm socket will fit.pm your email or cell number.i can text or email a pic if needed.I have a stripped door so its no big deal.
