Please correct me if I'm in error - but I had thought primary danger - 
relative to spring energy was taking regulator apart - not removing 
motor - and as I recall it had less energy in one position - but the 
reason for vice grips would presumably be to keep an "up" window from 
falling down due to gravity - or is there stored spring energy there too?
