Q: Driver window regulator replacement
Hello! My goal when I started was to replace my window regulator because the window was stuck up. When I opened up my door, I saw the wire was loose. I unplugged the window panels and motor from the battery and have unbolted it from the door. Where I'm stuck is detaching the window glass from the regulator. I first tried to unscrew it but it was on too tight or I couldn't get the right angle to turn it on. Any help would be great! Thanks
