First remove the two Phillips screws holding the arm rest on. They are located down inside where you fingers would grab to pull the door closed. Next, remove the two large Phillips screws holding the door pull strap just above the arm rest. They are hidden under plastic cover plates at each end of the handle. Use a small flat screwdriver to flip the covers open. Remove the one Phillips screw in the recess behind the metal pull handle just above the window controls. After that, CAREFULLY pry up on the front edge of the window control pod. This is usually fake wood colored. If it doesn't pry up after a few tries you can leave it in until you get the door panel off and then disconnect it from the back. Carefully remove all wiring connectors from the window control pod. There are five or so and each comes off in a different way. Once that is done, you can pry out the plastic Christmas tree connectors that hold the perimiter of the door on. These might break or pull through the plastic during the process so go easy! It is quite handy to have the prying tool designed for this - $6 at your local AutoZone. The plastic connectors are positioned around the edges of the door panel - just pick a spot and start prying straight out. Work your way around until only the top edge by the window is still connected. Once the bottom is completely free, push up on the entire panel and the top edge will pop up and out. Reach around and remove the remaining wiring connectors while holding the panel a few inches away from the door. It helps to have someone hold the panel while doing this. Set panel aside and reconnect the window pod. You will need this to adjust the door mechanism to the right spot to work on. The window track rides on two plastic rollers that snap onto a little ball which is rivited to the scissor mechanism. These wheels tend to break or wear until they fall out of the track. Since you went through all the trouble of removing the door panel it's best to replace them rather than just pop them back in! Go back to AutoZone in the help isle and pick up two ($5/ea). Use whatever means necessary to pop the old wheel off. Bend the bottom of the track down a little and install the new wheel. Hold the metal ball in position and use a pair of channel locks to pop the ball into the wheel. It will go in HARD! Do not pry on the glass! Bend the track back up and reinstall everything back together. Use a light silicone lube in the track to keep things rolling. Test operation before reinstalling door panel. Good Luck!
