hi guys new on hear, my window wont go back up, i striped the drivers door panel off today, and wen i pressed the window switch i noticed at the hinge side at the bottom ther was all wire at the bottom, the window clips look in tact, is it the window regulator i need to change? any advice would be great,and is it a hard job, cheers kris
 
Sounds like the cables on the regulator.
When i changed mine the whole door frame comes off complete, not too bad to do.
Make sure you mark where the "wedges" go.. other wise your window wont ever shut correctly again and you'll get a wind noise.
 
Yip, definately the regulator, make sure the motors working while your in there. Take your time and mark up the bolts and it's pretty easy
 
thanks guys, the regulator is pot rivited on, do you no what size the pot rivets are by any chance? an length? cheers kris
