manual to power window conversion, OR how to replace a power window regulator Options

[brianforster]

ok guys, so i have an entire new set of doors with power options , door panels and wiring included, im going to swap this into my celica but im stuck.

how do you get into the door, like to disconnected/reconnect the power window regulator, or take off the manual one? theres no space, how would you replace the window? it seems as if there has got to be away to take off the inner most piece of metal so that you have access to the doors innards, is this possible?

how would a shop do it.

thanks

if it will help you get started i know the window is held on to the regulator with 3 bolts that you can get to when its up just a little or through service holes when it is all the way up, you have to angle the window to get it out without taking the stoppers off... the regulator is help on by 2 bolts on the top and 2 bolts and 1 nut at the bottom, the motor is held on by three bolts and the regulator and motor are connected, they will slide out the big hole in the door frame. if that doesnt help ill get the pictures later when i do it.
