Default Changing window regulator?

Just wondered if anyone has done this in an EG and how much of a pain it is to do. It would be for a 92 CX with manual windows. Any help is appreciated.

I'd like to know this as well, I have a 2000 Coupe..

Im assuming you would need door panels, the motor/belts/switches/whatever else, and maybe run a few wires?

Seems like it might be a pain, but well worth the effort.

1)Take off the door panel. One bolt in pocket, one bolt below mirror, one bolt behind door handle. Then just pull off the door panel from the top.
2)Remove the window roller handle thingy. It's a c-clip. (i'm assuming you have manual windows).
3) Roll the window down until you expose the bottom part of the window glass inside the door and undow the 2 bolts that attach it to the long arm of the regulator. Pull out the glass.
4)Unbolt 6 screws (i think) that attach the regulator to the door. Pull it out.

I think that's it. I might be forgetting something though. It's not a hard job at all and you can do it.

You'd probably need door panels too, right? For all the controls, etc..

I think he just wants to change the window regulators. Not convert to power windows.

This is the info I was needing. I wasn't talking about converting to power windows just changing the regulator.

very easy to do...as soon as you pop off the panel and pull back the plastic, you could see exactually what needs to come out, how it comes out and how you're gonna put it back in. Honda made this step fairly easy
