I've removed all visable screws and have managed

to get the arm rest/power window controls off.



I am trying to get to the mechanics of the power window,

what do I do next?

that tool is available at autozone for cheap, it's a cross between a screwdriver, prybar, and fork.

just remember there is a screw behind where the inside door handle is

and by the way- next time you dont have to remove the arm rest, just

the 4 screws hidden underneath. There also might be some screws hidden

in the carpet along the bottom there, in the middle and on the sides.
