To replace the window regulator on a Volkswagen Polo, you need to completely remove the door panel from its housing: pry off the trim around the handle, loosening the screws located underneath it. Once these additional screws are loosened, you can detach the door panel and locate the underlying window regulator mechanism.

This must be freed from its connectors, loosening the fixing screws as well; at this point, you can remove the old mechanism, insert the new one, and reinstall the panel.
