Door lock assembly is held by three screws. Wing window is held by three screws. The rest are behind the panel. Remove them and let the window glass drop down. Pull up and rotate the wing assembly. May help to spread the door a little and remove the wipers first.

got it!!! there was just one peice i had trouble getting, and its still in there because of 1 screw i stripped the head on.. its just the back track to the window so i said screw it and left it in there. its not as bad to get apart as i though it would be, but i can't wait to try to line it all back up again... i did find out both glasses are perfect top to bottem though!

Do the follow for assembly in reverse order. Works great.
Good topic! It can be very difficult. This is how I assemble a door: 1)Install outside door handle 2)Install outside door lock 3)Install latch mechanism with rods attached, feeding inside door lock rod up through hole and leaving the inside door handle rod inside door 4)Hook up inside door handle rod to mechanism and bolt into place 5)Install window regulator 6)Install rear window guide, leave the two lower mounting bolts out and leave the upper mounting bolt loose so that you can move the guide to the rear 7)Install window seal, leave a slack at the front where the vent window goes 8)Roll the window regulator up to where you can see the rollers engage the roller track onto the back roller and tilt the window down and back 9)Engage the front roller by slipping it into the access hole located in the middle the roller track 10)At this point carefully lower the window all the way down and position it rearward as far as you can, moving the rear guide to allow this 11)With the window to the rear, you can feed the vent window in place if you move the glass seal out of the way, fasten vent window assembly once in place 12) Reinstall window seal in place, cutting if necessary I usually glue the seal in spots, using 3M trim cement once I am satisfied with the location and fit 13) Install inner fuzzie, sometimes you have to trim to fit 14) Install outer window wiper 15) Position window forward into the vent window verticle track 16) Install bottom screws into rear lower window guide and tighten upper screw At this point the widow should roll up and down. Installing the regulator can be a little unsafe because it is like a shear so be careful when working inside the door. Good luck
