1991 Ford Bronco 1991 Bronco driver window motor

Electrical problem
1991 Ford Bronco V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic 57350 miles

The motor went out for the driver side window, and I can't figure out how I'm supposed to get to the motor?!? My window is stuck open approximately 2 inches, and it's already hot around here, and I haven't fixed the A/C yet... I took off the door panel, and it looks frigging IMPOSSIBLE to get to anything on the inside of the door. If you could please give a newbie to DIY detailed instructions, that would be great!

Removal
Disconnect battery negative ground cable.
Remove door trim panel and watershield. DOOR TRIM PANEL (BRONCO & F-SERIES) or DOOR TRIM PANEL (ECONOLINE) .
Disconnect power window motor wire from harness connector.
Check inside the door to ensure electrical wires are not in line with holes to be drilled in the door panel. Using a 1/2" (12.7 mm) diameter drill bit, drill two holes in door inner panel at drill dimples located opposite two exposed motor drive retainer screws.
Remove three motor mount retainer screws using two drilled holes and existing larger hole access to screw heads.
Push the motor toward outside sheet metal to disengage motor and drive from regulator gear. After motor and drive are disengaged, prop window in full UP position.
