I have been able to find electrical diagrams, service bulletins, recalls and a lot of other vehicle specific information at my local liabrary website. The only major downside is the website will not let me print thier info.
You may want to give that a try, all I need is my library card number to sign in.

Instead of rambing on about this

Here area few things found out there to help.

I suggest being carefull when hitting anything to do with the regulator. You will see what I am talking about when you check out the video.

I have done this sort of work for yrs on various autos and the are basically the same thing.

One thing that is not covered here is the guides. Guide replacements are commonly required ro ensure that the regulator armature does not bind after replacing. You should be able to find all of these parts out there and include the window weather wipe base strip (outside btm strip) in the replacement as well as the side frames and rails.

First the intro
How To Change a Power Window Motor - Carcondition.com

Several that I have done use the large rivets on the mounts. I was never able to find a rivet that large to go back with so I short bolted with thin nuts and tacked them to keep them in place. Doing that requires clearenances to be the same as the rivit. Thats very important in that the regulator can bind on the replacement bolts if they extend past the old rivets that were removed. It may appear that there is room but the clearances change as the window is raised or lowered. You may have to back stab the bolts with the nuts ending up facing your side. If so that is best because you can tack them in place easier.

I have also found that the regulators have minimum play (usually) so I have left them alone and replaced the motor and the window guides and wiper weather seal. I have found that to work on everyone one I have replaced so far.

Now some cat doing the work. Its not your vehicle but as mentioned the method has commonalities for almost all. Figuring out the differences is not that hard once you have done this work one time. I also use needlle nose pliers and a screw driver to get the clips to release on the door panel. some of these plastic pin certs may actually tear out at the panel. So thats before that happens use the needle nose pliers to get in there to grip them and pry them out. The plastic noise weather gaurd inside always rips (mybe thats just me being rough) but usually I just duct tape that back.

Depending on the vehicle the window elevation when dong the work may have to be in one position or another. Some down low and some vehicles up high. Once the window position is determined I have shimmed and taped it in place when removing the hardware that is supporting it. If shimming using a rod or stick remember to leave access to the port hole where you will have to be extracting and installing the parts.

The rest is trial and error for each different vehicle. So the best way to learn is diving in there and know as you go. Best of luck ;0) and happy labor day
