Kent,

 The inner door panel comes off (like any other type 44) that your familiar with.
The "door wedges" I will outline with a marker so I can put them back in the same place, remove the four 13mm bolts and pull the door/window frame up and into you so you can get to the circlip that holds the window reg to the window bracket. Remove the three 10mm bolts that hold the reg motor and the four frame bolts to remove the reg/motor as a unit..... then just replace the reg/motor with one from any type type44.
