All the cables will have wrapped around the motor and you will NEVER get it apart. I got my repair kit from the dealer (think it cost me £38) fitted it myself and it wasn't tht bad. There is a step by step guide on here somewhere (will see if I can find it). and I am by no means mechanically minded!!! Just remember when you do "finally" get your door panels off, leave the metal retaining clip/bar on the repair kit when fitting as it holds off all the tension and makes it easier to fit!!!

I got mine from the dealers & I found my post on here from when mine broke & i paid £36.50 + vat. As soon as I told the guy at the parts desk that my window had dropped he said "ah, you'll be needing the repair kit". It's a known fault with the mk4's.

Its not too bad mate, as said its a known fault so if your not handy with a spanner, your local garage should be able to sort you out. Dealers said they hold the stock as its a regular request.
The day you see me in a diesel is the day there is no more petrol left :D
