I have a question. What's the easiest way to get the door panel off? I had a lot of trouble freeing the door panel once I got it loose. Something was stuck that I couldn't find.-Ryan-

You want to replace the window run channel (what the window slides in). I did my drivers side.
Take door panel off. Remove the plastic door covering carefully as you will be putting it back. Move the window to where you can remove loosen/remove the screws that hold the window in place. Remove the window. Then remove the old run channel and install the new one. Not hard, just takes time.Comment

Its stuck because you have to remove the inside door handle...theres a plastic retainer holding it in place...you have to get a small flat head and pop out the metal rod thats clipped inside of it..then voila you good to goOriginally posted by 90Accord-R

That little clip was a pain. I usually just turned the door panel sideways and squeezed the whol ehandle assembly out... I broke the clip on my passenger side doing that though... I have a twisty tie thing taking it's place (works pretty well too!) That clip is the toughest thing...
The regulator is pretty easy itself. Once the panel is off, remove the water guard (plastic) carefully... I was afraid to try that, so I took it to a mechanic too... he ripped it to shreds Just put the window down far enough to get it out. You'll see two bolts on white plastic... That's where the window bolts on (and adjusts... adjusting is a pain.) Loosen those and slip the glass out of the top. Then just remove the regulator (loosen the bolts, look on the new regulator if you must to get an idea where they are.. or get a Chiltons...) Stick the new regulator back in, bolt it down, slide the window in, and bolt it in. Adjust, and you're set...
And somewhere in there you can replace the rubber... I can't help with that (I still have to do it).
BTW, www.1aauto.com is a good place to buy the regulator.
