Need a bit of help here people! Im trying to fit a new window regulator but one of the steps (to remove the glass) requires the window to be only 120mm up to access the glass bolts.

The problem is that the mechanism is stuck and i can only physically push the glass down half the distance required. Even with the smallest ratchet spanner/torx bit, i cant get to the glass bolt as theres no space :(

Has anyone else had this problem and know of any solutions? Id have played a little more but it was getting quite late...
 
I cut the wire on either side and pulled it out. Then the window moves no problem. Just be careful not to drop it inside the door and potentially break it.
