Here's my How To Guide for replacing the window lifter, you can see the small gap at the top of the window where we managed to rig it so it would close at least that far.
To get to the winder you need remove door furniture and door card.
Start by popping the plastic cover off the winder and undo the center screw holding the winder on.
Next remove the door pull this is nice and simple the finger guard pops out you can just see the small gap on the right by the pull lever pop a small flat blade screwdriver in there and lever it out.
After the finger plate is out you undo the screw behind it and the whole thing comes away except for the actual door pull.
Before the door card will come up you finally need to remove the handle this is as easy as it looks undo the two screws and it should unclip.
If your door card is clipped in you should be able to remove the clips and take the door card off, mine was pop riveted on so I had to drill them out before it would come off.
Pop the winder back on and screw it in place this will make moving the winder up and down easier.
As you can see from the picture below at some point the lifter had been repaired with welds but these have rusted and broken off, at this point I undid the two small bolts as this and the channel the window sits in will be replace.
Using a larger flat blade screwdriver gently ease the runner of the glass starting at one end and work across
Bolt the new lifter in place and place the rubber protector in the channel you can use the original if it is in good condition or replace it.
Reverse the process of taking the door furniture and you are done, the whole process took me half an hour whilst taking pictures but should only take around 10 -15 minutes the only bit I was really careful with was prizing the glass from the lifter so I didn't break it.
