How do you replace the manual window regulator in a 98 VW New Beetle?

Most door panels have screws located underneath the door armrest. Look carefully and find them all. Remove door handle; look for hidden screws or clips. Next carefully pull at the bottom of the panel to release the plastic clips. I usually use a flat blade screwdriver to gently pry with. Be sure to keep watching underneath looking up to make sure that the panel is releasing and to make sure you did not miss any screws. Keep track of all clips, screws, etc. Make sure that the glide button is not worn on your window track as this could be why the window came off in the first place. there is a recall on this for the window regulators call the dealer. <incorrect. A now expired warranty extension was added for this problem. It expired in 2007.
