Power window failure please help!

I recently was hit on my passenger side door in a hit and run a few days ago. I was able to remove the panel with ease but my problem was with the window. While "attempting" to remove the window to get to the area the windows drive motor (im guessing thats what its called i have no actual idea) becomes too loose and both wires that rotate around the gear fell off. So now I have the motor, the inner white gear, the 2 wire ends, and the 2 springs, all unattached from each other. I literally have no idea how this even remotely happened. If anyone here could please... please... tell me how to reassemble the motor that would be fantastic!. Thank you!

your better off just buying a new window actuator (I pretty sure that's what it's called) I just had mine replaced two days ago... I paid about $90.00 for the part. looks like an oversize triangle right?
