[V8] Window cable busted

[Capt Ron]

That doesn't look rite.
 But to get to the circlip just remove the four 13mm bolts. Two at the bottom & two on the sides of the inner door frame. 
 I just use a magic marker to trace the wedges on the lower bolts and encircle the two top/side bolts.

I am, after 2 weeks of back and forth with the seller, nowhere. He can't understand what could possibly be wrong. He wanted me to check with the dealer to see if there was a mid-year change. I would suggest that when you need a replacement regulator to search out a good used one and put it in as a unit or change out the parts you need.
