Technical Drivers window "grating noise"

[martyc5674]

Drivers window has been noising pretty bad...it's obviously rubbing against something.
Does the inside rubber seal just prise up??
I've given it some hefty tugs but no joy... Don't want to break anything.
So just wondering best way of removing for closer inspection
Marty.

It's fixed to the interior door trim. If you take out the two large round plastic fasteners (they're like huge Fisher Price screws!) from the hard plastic moulding and a few other screws in the back of the inner door handle recess etc, the whole trim panel unhooks (upwards) from the top edge of the inner door pressing, bringing the glass seal with it.

Wish I'd knows this couple weeks ago when my n/s/f lock was playing up, I managed to unhook and detatch everything apart from the very top bit :bang:


There are 3 screws in the speaker cover too
