You have to pull your inside door panel off. It's a couple screws (I want to say like 4-5).

just find all the screws, then look for more, there are a couple hidden underneath the window/lock controls... shouldn't be too hard to get off. after that, you gotta look for the window motor. window motors going out is a very common problem in camaros/trans ams.... search and I'm sure you can find a writeup on how to replace them.

YES!

This link is golden. This is what I used to change my power window motor last summer. It really isn't that hard to do if you follow the instructions. Did my first one in about 2 hours in my parents' garage. The next one will go much faster, as I know what I'm doing now.

The fee to have a shop do this for you is over $200, while the motor itself is around $60-ish. Good luck!
