Power sliding rear window

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    CAUTION: The following substeps are to prevent the cables from popping out of the motor housing. If an existing regulator and motor assembly is to be reused, do not allow the cables to pop out of the motor housing, as they can unwind from the drum. If the cables unwind from the drum, a new regulator and motor assembly will have to be installed.
    NOTE: The aid of an assistant will be required to support the glass in close proximity to the body opening during the following power sliding rear window installation steps.
