I also remved the mounting panel underneath, but not sure if this is actaully necessary.
Tool wise, youll need various torx drives and a star drive (either M10 or 12 from memory) for the screws 4,5,6,7 in the diagram. You do need to remove the outer door seal, which is glued to the door at the top. I used a trim tool to unclip the clips first before breaking the glue so that i didnt tear any of the rubber. I would also get a few replacement door clips a s you will break one or two, and make sure that you "reset" the clips prior to refitting as they wont go through the mounting holes otherwise and make sure the seals are fully seated around the window.

The seal is the one that goes up the side of the door that is glued, at the top Near screws 5 and 6, it is continuous over he top of the window frame so you will need to pull it out from the frame to release it, or at least that is what i did.
