Default HELP ON REMOVING A PANEL!!

I need to fix my driver side window so i can pass a inspection. I'm not trying to spend money to do it. I tried a long time ago and i was told i cant do it without air compressed tools? Is this true or not? I need to take the damn panel off and put the window back on track!

If your talking about the door panel is just unscrews then pops off. Then you well need to move the track toward the front of the door (should be two bolts that are 7/16" (i think). Lossen then then put the window back on track and secure the bolts. Reattach panel and your good ot go.

EXACTLY. i have no idea why they are failing me because of it. Soon we are going to go to the county and get it settled. EVERYWHERE is failing me, even when my friend just got his inspection and his window is off track. Its bull**** though.

That was some good info haha, straight forward and easy. But, its only me doing it and im not that great at working on cars. I'm only 16 and im learning, but i took the panel off already and it looked so confusing like i couldnt get to my window or something, i tried putting the panel back on and now i can't even put it back on!!!![]

Just take your panel off about a hundred times. Ive done that and I could take it off blind folded. By the way im only 17. Ive been working on cars and tractors for as long as I can remember.
