Default 2015 Window not moving-Regulator Cable broke

Front drivers side door makes a grinding noise when trying to move the window up/down. Took door panel off and motor and see that the cable is broken. From what I can find this can be resolved by replacing the window regulator assembly. Trying to find a part# has been an issue. I found 82471-3Y010. I am pretty handy, is this a do it yourself thing? Car is a couple months over 5 years old so guessing this isn't a warranty issue.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

Not aware of any warranty issue.
Part easiest to replace if you stay with OEM (Hyundai) parts.

Thanks for the reply, warranty for 5 years so just missed it. I am an engineer so I feel comfortable taking on most projects. I do research, YouTube videos etc. I can't find anything on the 2015 Elantra regarding this part replacement. I took the door panel off and then the window motor and saw the cable damaged. I understand not as simple as replacing cable, entire assembly must be replaced. I did not have time to pull the regulator assembly off since my daughter needed her car. I was happy I was able to get window back up. I found the regulator assembly for about $219. Wish I could locate some installation instructions...going to dig deeper today.

Probably looking at older models will give you a good clue as to how to proceed??
