Driver side window switch replacement.

Hi,

Trying to replace the driver side window switch in my 03 SL55 AMG and I've hit a wall. I have the door panel off laying on my work bench and I can't figure out how to get to the switch. I really hope someone has done this and can help me out. The switch is below where the tape and red wire show up in the picture. If I need to provide more information, please askThanks in advance.

Doug

There is a slide lock that you will have to pull out to release the switch

Well perseverance paid off. I was able to find all the screws that held the pull handle on and then it was a breeze to get the switch out. Just waiting on the new switch to come tomorrow and hopefully remember how to put everything back together. Thank you!
