Did you try searching?? I myself posted a how to on this at one point, and have seen it posted by others too.

For the slow window, spray Silicone in the window tracks, and then raise and lower the window up and down a few times to work it in. You can find it in any auto parts store. That really worked on my 96 Accord whose windows actually completely stopped when it was really cold.

I believe there are two screws, one in the cut-out section of the armrest and the other is in the handle area. Besides the two screws, the panel is held on by plastic clips...just slowly pull the panel off so none of the clips break. Do the bottom first, and the handle has to be manipulated to a certian angle to slip through the panel.

Yeah the door only has 2 or 3 screws one usually at the door handle, another at the door arm rest/handle, and one other spot. After that just slowly pull the snaps apart, and manuever the door handle through its hole in the panel, but be careful, because sometimes there is an extra screw behind the panel that attaches itself to the frame also. After that the panel just slide out of its track.
