Pontiac Repair: 2003 Pontiac Bonneville SSEI, pontiac bonneville, window regulators


Question
Both of the rear side window seem to have jumped out of the lifter arm. How do I get the door panels off

Answer
Hi Michael:

You will need 2 new window regulators they do not jump off the track. The cables break on the regulators. The door panels ahve push clips around the parimeter of the inside door trim that needs to be pryed outwards and then in a swift jerking motion lift the panel upwards from the gram handle. there are 2 metal spring clips that need to be lifted out of there retainers right in the middle of the panel. Just make sure you ahve all the plastic clips around the endges disengauged before you pull up on the door or you will be stopping at the dealer to buy more clips. good luck :}
