Put the regulator in the door, make sure mounting surface is toward the inside of the car, let it rest at the bottom of the door. Hold the glass vertical with the leading edge (front of car) up, slide the glass down through the opening then after its inside the door rotate it to horizontal. Lower it enough so that it can be inserted into the glass channel front and rear then push it up. Have extra hands hold it while the regulator arms are inserted into the metal channel. Raise or lower the regulator with glass to its mounting position, insert and tighten 6 screws to hold in position. Or it may be necessary to raise or lower just the regulator arms in order position the regulator in its mounting location.
