drivers window motor knackered! removal looks tricky!

[vetec]

i have a problem with my ibiza window motor ,i,ve fitted new switches already and when you try to get the window up or down you can hear the relay on the motor clicking on and off .i guess i need a motor.i tried removing it tonight but ended up putting it back together as it looked tricky!anyone done one on their car?

did my own a while ago, yes it's a bit tricky at first but just be patient and look carefully how it all goes together and you'll be fine!

You don't have to take the rails out to do it.

Take a picture with your phone of the back of the motor to locate all the bolts holding it in. Take them out then there are a few holding it in round the front then it should slide out. You will need to pop off the wire and make it sure it doesn't unravel. Put the new one in putting the reel of wire back on and bolt it back up.

I'm sure I did a more detailed description somewhere. I might even circle all the bolts as I'm sure I still have my picture somewhere.

All the gold bolts need to come out
