Did you get it together? you hav eto drill out the rivets if they are there or just unscrew and replace. its a pain to get your hands in there a short screw driver helps. ive done mine 3 times got stuck at work one day with the window not going up. that was fun took the car over to the automotive building got the motor out took my moms car to the store got a replacement and put the new one back in.

The next time you gotta do it will be much easier, having those holes drilled already really cuts down on the PITA part of it
