If it the plastic clip you can replace it without removing the regulator. If it is the metal carriier that is broke another story. That carrier broke on this same window a year or 2 ago. Search - repair window regulator - there is a post titled "my third window regulator" bout 8 posts down there is a flicker video showing a guy repairing his carrier. I did this but didnt even take the regulator out of the door.
