Note: Seven M6 x 10 mm screws will be required to secure the regulator on refitting.

Removal
37 Remove the door trim panel, as described in Section 11.

38 Carefully peel back the waterproof sheet from the door (see illustration).

14.38 Peeling back the door waterproof sheet

39 Lower the glass so that the channel and regulator attachments are accessible through the door aperture. Detach the ball and socket joints (two for the front door, one for the rear door).

40 Lower the glass to the base of the door, then undo the seven screws, or drill out the seven rivets on later models, which secure the regulator in position. Note that on some models only five retaining rivets may be used (see illustrations).

14.40a Removing the regulator retaining screws

14.40b Regulator retaining rivet location (arrowed)

41 With the screws or rivets removed, the regulator unit can be withdrawn from the aperture in the door (see illustration).

14.41 Withdrawing the window regulator

Refitting 42 Refitting is a reversal of the removal procedure. Align the regulator with the respective holes before screwing or pop riveting it to secure. The ball and socket joints are a push-fit to the glass channel, but support the channel when pushing on the joint.

43 Since the screw fixing regulator is no longer being manufactured, replacing the regulator on early models with the later type regulator necessitates drilling out the retaining holes to 7 mm (0.276 in). Special J-nuts must then be fitted to the regulator positioned in line with each of the seven securing holes.

The regulator can then be attached to the door shell using seven M6 x 10 mm screws.

Do not use any other screw type.
