Default Getting ready to remove power window motor....question.....

After removing the door panel, how can I get the window UP to remove the motor? Will I be able to raise it somehow?

Mine was totally dead. Done replacing the motor.....Was, I believe, the factory ford unit as it had ford markings and numbers on it. AND, it was old. Had rust on part of it too.

Window didn't move at all. It was fully down.....

NOW, its fully UP! Feels good to have it fixed. I spend 90% of the time with my sunroof off and stowed, so I guess if smeone wanted into the car they could climb through the roof.....But thats a lot harder than just reaching inside the door through an open window and opening it. Plus, I leave my diabetic supplies in the car, along with other valuables, so having windows that WORK is important to me...
