I have removed the passenger door panel from my 2003 CLK320. It appears that the cable and 'worm gear' on the window regulator motor has broken. I am thinking that I only need to replace the motor and cables, but I'm not sure. When you buy a regulator does it come with the cables? How do you connect the new cables to the guides that hold the window. Does anybody have the step by step instructions? Any help would be much appreciated.

The motor and it's 90-degree angle worm gear are on component. The gear that drives the cable is separate (that cable gear is part of the regulator assembly). If both the motor's worm gear and the gear driving the cable are bad, you have to replace both the motor and the regulator. My guess is that the motor is fine, you just need the regulator.
