To replace the window regulator on a Volkswagen Golf, remove the cover from the inner door handle and loosen the screws underneath. Next, loosen the screws located at the bottom of the panel so it can be removed after disconnecting the connectors.

At this point, you can remove the inner panel by unscrewing its bolts and also detach the window fastening elements. The window regulator will be located at the back of the inner panel and can now be removed and replaced with a new spare part.
