the pics dont work anymore, but the information is still there.

in my sedan, there were 3 screws under the door pannel and 2 on the side. there are also 2 in the door pannel where you grab the door to pull it shut. there was also one on the pannel right under the a-pillar at the front of the door on the other side of where the mirror would be on the outside of the car.

there is a c-clip holding the window crank on. there is lots of info on the "rag method". it works well and doesnt cost anything. i bought a tool for $2.50 for removing interior pieces like those snap in plastic things, works well.

once the window crank is removed, grab hold of the door in yank. there are some plastic things holding the door pannel on the metal of the door. lift over the lip of the window and your done.

thats it pretty much in a nutshell, check that link out for more detailed info. next time use the search button at the top of the forum page. took me less than 5 minutes to find that link.


Injection is nice but id rather be BLOWN!

Also, I would strongly suggest NOT yanking on the door after you remove the window crank. Instead, tug around the edges to pull the clips loose. If you forget a screw and yank on it, you might break somethin.

This information is in the link he provided I read the instructions there, and they also suggested this same method for the same reason. See, me no so estupido after all. I just noticed in his post here, he mentioned yanking on the door, and I know I'd get all bent outta shape if I had an '05 and just busted somethin. I get all bent outta shape when I bust something on my '99 sfire, even though the car has been through hell. Most of the cosmetic damage on my car was due to my own stupidity and failed attemps at mods anyway. For instance, I did somethin wrong when I tried to paint my vents, now I have a couple broken ones due to too much paint. Know what really blows? It's really hard to find used parts for these cars to replace the ones you mess up. Seems like nobody totals these things (not a good idea anyway, since the safety ratings on it are so low).
