quick question about window regulator

hi all, after reading all the posted i now know my window regulator has snapped and used the guide on here to take the door apart (brilliant thanks)

i fould a small piece of plastic in the bottom of the door and its off the window regulator see pic below (left hand side of pic)

just one problem...... i cant undo the nut in the bottom pic .....err it seem so tight and when i try it, it slips and if i keep trying it will wreck the nut head, i had a feel of the back and its pastic, do i undo it from the back? any advise i would be very gratefull, thanks

That looks like a bolt!Is there a nut at the back?You may need to hold nut at the same time as you undo the front bolt.
Best thing is to spray some wd40 there ,or a Wurth "rust off ice "spray will ice down bolt to -40º.Then try and undo it.
If still doesnt budge,then only way is is to use air line tool wrench to hammer impact the bolt.
