[V8] window won't go up

[Kent McLean]

The port-side rear window on my '90 V8 won't go up. I pressed the down
button, it went down OK. But hitting the up button -- no go.  So I did
a write-up on it, based on my original write-up for my '89 10V 200
(BTDT). It basically tells you how to put power to the motor, bypassing
all the switches and switch wiring.

In a moment of prophecy, I noted "If the window still does not move,
you have a problem with the motor or regulator."  So of course mine
still won't go up. I thought it would be an easy matter to remove
the panel and take out the motor, but *no-oo-oo*, the V8 door is
built like a tank. There is sheet metal covering the entire inside,
with a few holes barely big enough to get a hand in.

The manual says:
* remove door trim panel
* remove inner door panel
* remove regulator mounting bolts, and remove
   regulator from inner door panel

They're kidding, right? Anyone have a better "how-to"?

Thanks.
