Door panel help

So I was trying to see to back up earlier this morning and dumbass didn't think about the window being frozen, but I rolled it down anyway and now my window has broken off the track....I was wondering if you all could make it easier on me to take the door panel off.....never did one on a truck this new. Are there screws anywhere, or is it just a tug hard and pray way to go. any advice would be great. can't tackle it until tomorrow anyway.

How new? 2004-08 follow these instructions: https://www.f150online.com/forums/in...2004-f150.html
2009-10 there are two screws in the panel bottom and a bolt in the bottom of the finger recess (for pulling door closed) under the snap-in plastic piece, but none near the speaker. Don't forget to remove and unplug the power window/door lock switches to give you more play when you lift the panel off the retaining notches.

Very easy on my '99 XL (no power windows/locks/mirrors).

          UPDATE: Door panel came off without a hitch, its actually the easiest door panel I have ever taken off.....three screws and lift up. Window has been re-glued in with some windshield eurathane adhesive so it should be stuck for quite some time....thanx for all the help.

          I'm glad it worked out for you ... not a good time of the year to have a bad window ...
