Removing window motors from regulators?

How does the motor come off the regulator? I've got the three screws out, but it won't come off...

yeah, me too. I did mine a few weeks ago. I had one screw that I accidentally stripped, so I had to take a vice grips to it. Otherwise, it came out pretty easy.

Thanks guys. After posted I went back out and tried wiggling it a bit more and got it. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to break it...

if you have a window problem.....after you figure out that the motors arent swapable (for lack of a better word) that is from front to rear or left to right, send me a message if you are interested in used motor/reg. im parting out a 92 SE never wrecked. all parts available. sunroof toooooo

im doing the regulator right now too, damn i hate those motor screws... i finally got the motor off and everything, but now the motor turning-key thingy on the back isnt lined up with the receiving rotary end so i cant get it in. On the old regulator i can get it in by pulling the cables myself until the receiving end rotates and is lined up properly, but on the new regularot the cables are all tidy so i cant pull them myself to line the turning thing up! does this make sense? what do i do about this?

EDIT: I gues i can get the motor wheel thing to turn by hooking it up and using the window controls, i wonder why i didnt think of this before
