GOOD LUCK!! My window stopped working for almost 2 weeks. Of course it was stuck down. I tried everything short of taking my Louisville Slugger to it, but nothing worked. One thing I didnt try! Got a cutting torch?!

I have yet to pull a window from an FD, but have done so many times on an FC. On most cars, it's a pretty simple operation - run the window down halfway, remove the door panel, and look in there. The window is likely bolted to the power window slider with 2 10mm bolts. Unbolt them, then just lift the window out. VERY simple operation.

If you have a power window that's not working due to a bad switch or the like, just get a spare car battery and hook up the positive and negative leads to the power window motor. I've done that before .
