I just bought a 2000 hyundai elantra and the left rear window is off track and falls down. I'm trying to pull the door panel off and am stuck getting past the door handle. I was wondering how to pull the door panel off so I can see the window track?

Welcome to 10w40.com. 1 Screw In door latch pocket, 1 -- in arm rest pocket under rubber gromet, 2 -- in upper forward edge of door panel, 2 -- in upper back edge of door panel. It also has ~5 captured plastic snaps along the bottom. These are the typical press-in but have a flat head that is captured in little plastic fork brackets that are glued onto the backside of the door panel. Remove all the screws carefully remove the plastic snaps from the door body(Try using a flat fork like tool) This may be hard to extract intact. Wobble door panel loose until you can access door latch rods on interior door handle. Its possible that excess black sealant might be keeping the door panel well attached to the door frame; (Maybe the vapor barrier is captured around the latch assembly, not sure) Once door panel is mostly loose, There are pink plastic clevis's that rotate off the latch rods to free the rods from the interior door handle. Disconnect the electrical up/down window switch (from the arm-rest portion) from the regulator motor... If you have to replace the power window regulator I understand that the bracket on the lower window edge unbolts to the regulator carraige, then the window removes upwards. (I dont expect to remove the window but to wedge it in place while removing the regulator.) Unbolting the regulator/motor assembly from the door frame, it should be removed out the bottom? Check to see if lift cable might be wrapped around the motor and is severely kinked... (loose lift cable end is flopping around) Some models have two lift cables that enter on the top of the regulator, some regulators have one cable on the top and one cable on the bottom.
