My driver's side window crank is *really* hard to crank. I get nervous
every time I use it; I've seen the handle snap right off (on another
Midget). My question (likely a stupid one) is - do you have to remove the
door panel to get lubricant on the mechanism. Or is there a way to spray
some silicone in somewhere without disassembling the door?
