Default How to lube window slides?

94 850 has slow power windows. I've seen reference to lubing the slides/gaskets which makes sense. I looked at the pics for door panel removal, but it looks like there is more dis-assembly require to get to what I need to clean and lube. Any pointers?

Thanks,
Chris

Just have to go for it. The only way to get to the window slides is to dissemble the door panel.

I realize the door panel needs to come off. Looks like there is more dis-assembly required after that to get to the slides.

Once the door assembly is off, there's really not much more you can do. The window it self sits inside the door. There is one small piece of sheet metal that can come off that holds a the wire harness if I remember correctly from my door, but other than that, there really isn't much more dissembling you can do. There are various holes through the metal that the window sits in so you can access the parts of it, but other than removing the door panel, that's about it.
