Did this job yesterday; the hardest part was aligning the window glass at the end. One major warning for anyone coming here before doing this job: do not simply close the door fully to see your work and check whether you need to tweak the position. Had I done that, it would've closed on the frame and possibly broken. Gently offer the door up but do not close it fully, you will be able to see whether it's out. Aim for an equal gap that's straight down the side, and about 1cm below the frame around the top.
Hi Neil, another excellent video, well done mate! I followed it to transfer the glass, wiring loom but not the window regulator on another door! Now I have a very strange issue (which I am not sure if it’s related), When I hold the 2 buttons down both windows gone down as normal, when I hold the 2 buttons up only the drivers side window goes up, the passengers won’t go up! If I press up only the left button for passenger window, the drivers goes up again! On passenger door, the switch works fine, window goes up and down. Is it just the window switch that I need to replace or I should transfer the whole window regulator mechanism with motor from my original Door?
Great video thanks, our mito drivers window has just packed up completely, so my question is....if the window is not working at all, how do we lower the window enough to get the window bolts out to start with. Btw, we've checked the fuses and electrical supply so we are sure it is the motor!?
You can't get a spanner up there as they are Torx internal. You can replace the Motor without removing the glass, just remove the 3 nuts holding it to the inner door skin. If the mechanism is shot, cut the cables and the window will drop.

Brilliant video , helped me out a lot. Cheers
Are alfa romeo brera and mito cam buttons the same? Do they fit together?
Very useful video!
ISUDAR Car Navigation thanks
Looks simple, got charged £380 for changing it. Should have done it myself.
Wow. Its takes 90 min max to fit and set up. It'd the units that cost the £££
Is it possible just swap the motor somehow?

Hope mines just a fuse that’s gone 🙏
