clio 172 door cards

[leebus]

Hi all! im wondering if anyone can help me!
I have a clio 172 and both window mechanisms have gone down! i have new motors but i cant seem to get the door cards off without brute force, and i dont want to break them
is there a special way or do i just prize them off
thanks lee

Have they both gone at the same time?
If so I doubt it's internal to the door, more like a relay.

hiya, both motors work, mechanisms seem to have collapsed

there is a 20 torx under a bung were you pull the door shut, and inside the release lever on the inside- remove the speaker grill and speaker
couple of torx at bottom of door panel. pull off the door mirror inside cover be careful they brake easy.also the back trim that goes from the top of the door panel to the top of the door/has a few trim clips behind.
pull away bottom of door panel using a plastic wedge, there will be a grey putty around the perimiter on the inside of the panel which stick's the panel to the paintwork once you have started to pull free it should be quite easy hope this help's

ps forgot to say there is a clip which secure's the window pane to the regulator that could be what has failed
but you may need the whole regulator if the cursor is broken
