I believe you can take it apart piece by piece from the inside by first removing your glove box liner (take off the door, then remove the liner).............this will give you more ease in sight and subsequent removal.
There are a number of thin steel clips that hold the 2 halves of the box assembly together.........remove them all, and the unit will come apart. There may be a rod on the right that holds the unit UP into the dash, with a retaining nut.
Apart from removing the rods and actuators, it should be relatively simple from there. Loosen the motor by removing the nuts from the outside, and it should come out through the inside of the box assembly (there were a few different styles.....not sure if all are the same).
Make a decent delete plate for under the hood for good looks.......shouldn't be too difficult........
.......just get used to standing on your head inside the car during removal, and I would recommend a good pain killer for your backache.......................have the wife or girlie stand by too, to pull you out of the car as your muscles stiffen.
