ive not have to replace the switch yet, though it has given me problems.
eventually, it will need to be pulled and swapped out. i know you can see
it clearly once the huge weather seal/gasket on the door frame is pulled out.
but the opening was very shallow and did not appear (to my eyeball) to
allow the plunger switch to be removed unless more space was gained.

this switch is inherently weak and poorly designed and is the cause for
other related ailments so it's fortunate that the cost for this part is low,
about < $20 US.

this is shot for the right side front door. obviously the inside liner will need
to be unfastened. FYI, vast majority of the problems related to the door
switch/plunger occur to the front, driver's side switch. it is the one most
used.
