Question
i have a 99 ford explorer sport and the window is stuck down. i want to know how to take the panel off so that i might figure out the problem without having to spend a lot of money.

Answer
its kinda tricky to do it with out damaging the door panel, first remove the handle and with the door open, lock the door, once you have all the screws out, starting at the bottom pry the body rivets out, these are large plastic plugs and a special removal tool is the best, it can be bought at NAPA or other auto parts store, but in a pinch a flat pry bar can be used.
