What'dya know - I was just there last night!  While preparing to pressure
sahe the engine and area under the cowling, I found the passenger window did
not go up from either switch. 

Off with the door panel!  Hey my phillips doesn't work in these holes.
Flashlight revealed and allen wrench - 5mm I beleive, but I didn't check, as
I just used the first one that fit snugly.  

Unscrew all three as much as you can, but they dont necessarily come all the
way out. Then Yank the handle off (if it breaks, well it needed replacement
anyway;'{kidding.)  Remove the inside door handle hook.  

Two small screws at the top sides of the door panel.  Everything else is
straight forward..yank panel up and out.

BTW. I was able to use a battery to get the window back up again.  I'll
trouble shoot later.  There's more important stuff to fix on this car first.

I need to get inside the front door of my '89 200 and reconnect the 
linkage to the lock cylinder.  I can't quite see how the armrest is 
attached to the door, though.  There are three small holes in the 
underside of the armrest, but they look a little small to contain the 
usual type of screw that most cars use, and on top of that, the holes 
don't angle toward the door, but seem to be completely vertical. 
Someone who has had one of these off tell me how it works before I 
end up breaking something.  Thanks.

Calvin K.
