It's cool man, I can swing it I was gonna do it myself but I was a bit uneasy about drilling through the door panel. Good news is that it does come with a 12 month / 12,000 mile warranty so if that sucker goes even a half second slower than it is now I'm taking it back for a new one.

that sucks
Autozone motors are lifetime and are like, what 38-45 bucks?
Took less than an hour here...
Drilling through the door was pretty easy, heck there are pictures of where to drill all over.

As soon as I get a little extra money, I think I'm gonna have to hire you to do mine... It's barely worked for like a year now, but it always seems like I have other things to do with my money... It drives me crazy, takes like 3 minutes to get it to go up.

Damn is everyone's window motor going out this month? I'm doing mine tomorrow morning for the first time. I'll be avaliable for hire after that. I got a write up with pictures from this site, so after tomorrow I'll be a certified window motor intaller and the king of headlight motor installation.

Alrighty, just shoot me a pm or make the call. takes about an hour to complete from start to finish with no distractions.

Window motor included in the $60.
