funny how familiarity makes you comfortable. I've had enough BMWs and had them in various states of disassembly that I feel comfortable working on them over all other makes...in fact none of my BMWs have had a problem serious enough for me to take to a shop in some years. I also do all my own maintenance.

You sometimes need some a few special tools, but really they are pretty straightforward to work on...you should tackle that window on your own...I've read the repair procedure and it does not seem too bad at all.
