help replacing window regulator

[deeznutz972]

HELP! i am having issues replacing this thing.

Issue #1:

i opened the door up and inside i found the metal piece that attaches to the track broken and laying inside the door seperated from the track.

The window is all the way down, but i realized that had the metal piece not have broken off completely, there is no way i could have removed it from the track to replace the regulator, as it was not lined up with the hole on the track.

in any case i moved on to the second nut (closest to door jam - LHD) so that i can free the window and raise it up manually, but i have no idea how to unscrew the nut as it also is not lining up with the hole in the track.

pic of door panel (cannot see where to unscrew window bolt #2):



pic looking inside door panel (screw is in the middle of the light):



is it possible my window is too low, or is this normal and i need to use a different tool to loosen the nut? i should probably also mention that the door handle is stuck. Hear this is sometimes a related issue.

Issue #2:

the clips appear to be too large for the new window regulator. the clips fit the broken regulator (as far as i know i ordered the correct regulator).

Picture of original with plastic tab still on (bottom):



pic of new regulator with tab appearing too big (notice right corner of plastic tab does not have a place to slide into):





any insight/advice is appreciated. Thanks!
