Default The wife's citroen c3 pluriel

The wife has one of them c3 pluriel's and the rear side window keeps falling down in its frame
Now I am sure its just the regulator but I am having difficulties getting at it without damaging the trim does anyone know how to get the n/s rear side trim off without damaging it

Its made of that god awful hard cheap plastic and will surely cost a fortune if I start pulling at it

Does anyone know any suppliers I can get the repair parts from

Please someone help cause the wife will be very happy with me if I can fix it

Thanks

Dave

Sorry, I cannot help with the window, but I recently went to a civil ceremony of a work colleague of my wife, and in the car park there were 9 Pluriels. Made me snigger!

It's a Citroen, give it a few more months and the trim will fall off by itself.

On a side note, I saw a picture on the tinternet a few months back. Think it was a new Golf or Audi.. To get to the door internals you unbolted the outer skin from the frame. Such a simple idea and made access super.

Audi Rob,the window frame is removable but still a fiddly job,Golf is just as bad and riveted to door frame.

Cant help with the Citroen but did serve my time on the older ones like the DS/GS and BX

Keep seeing BX's at the moment. Not seen one in years and now I keep seeing them! Not just the same one either.
