Default need help with window reg. and antenna

first question,

i need to fix my window regulator, not closing the window like should, how do i get to it? i removed the door panel, but the metal door piece is in the way, how do i fix it? or is it better to just let the shop do it?

my antenna snapped off, it's a auto antenna, so i got a new motor/antenna, my question is how do i get to it? how do i take out the back trunk panel?

i have a 98 eclipse

you have to remove the regulator from the door..

they are cable operated and the plastic wheels break...make sure you have the new regulator to replace it with...you will not be able to repair yours...

and remove the trunk plastic in order to get to the antannea assembly

i figured out the antenna,

now the regulator i figured how to get to it, but how do i tell if i need a new one? the problem is when i close my window, it closes all the way, but there is a like slight hole at the side like towards the back. today when i looked at it, the regulator, the side closer to the mirror, had 1 screw missing from the part that is screwed to the window, if i put a screw there, should that fix the problem? when you open/close the door you hear the piece raddle
