the spindles stick out FAR. that's why i didn't want to bother getting power door skins. the shitty thing is that the 'teeth' are on the outer most part of the spindle. this means you can't just cut it - you hafta cut it in two places and re-attach the tip like ^^^ did. i'm not sure what's involved with moving the whole mechanism farther into the door but it looked complicated if i remember correctly. most of the bolts an stuff aren't easily accesible. our doors are like a metal sandwich with the glass and window components in the middle.
