AT a guess i'd say you'll have to take the door trim off, and unbolt the rollers the window goes on, and guide it out.

Right strip the door down past the card take the white placcy out locate these 2 bolts, they are 10mm btw
Take these two out wind the window down then fiddle the window about and it will come free, the window is on 2 rollers and theres another roller on a support bar where you're taking the bolts out

oh right them two bolts is it just a matter of giving the window a good yank to free it from the ledge on the bottom?

Not a yank as such, you need to get the top left and push it towards the bottom right, this will free the rollers, what are you trying to achieve?

Piece of piss, I had my tinted ones in and out several times to keep VOSA happy.
Remove the two bolts pictured above, and I also remove the runner up the rear of the door, two bolts at the very bottom right hand corner looking at above pic.
Then use the window winder to lower the window keeping hold of part of the window, it will begin to drop.
Keep winding down the window and it will be almost 90 degrees beyond how it should be and will slide out.
Reverse the process to re-fit!
