Can someone please provide a clear explanation on how to remove the rear window regulator when the window cannot go back up and is stuck in the down position. I have removed the lower nut (#9) but I cannot determine how to get access to the upper nuts to free up the regulator. Are they 13mm nuts or 10 mm nuts? How many are there? The diagrams in the this post are atrocious. They do not very well depeict the removal of nuts securing the regulator to the body! I need help ASAP.

OK. With a "little" poorly documented and explained help from this forum I managed to remove my right rear window regulator from my 2003 Carrera 4 Cabriolet. I am going to provide as many pointers here as I can to make this effort much easier on the next DIY mechanic.
Thoroughly read this and other forum posts first.
Convertible top needs to be down or in the service position. Remove rear seat cushion, rear interior panel and rear window trim piece as described in this post or others. Rear seat back should be in the up position.
Good luck. Its not really that difficult once you see what needs to be free.... and the window itself is out of the way.
