Default Drivers side window for once!!
It's shot and I need a new motor. Found a pretty good priced one on ebay but it's OES. Anyone used it before and is it worth it for the money?

Thanks!

I saw that one and it's only $15 bucks cheaper. I figure it's worth it for the better one.

I didnt read the whole thread but you cant beat a local autoparts store with a lifetime warranty. Just drive there and get a new one when that burns out. Why worry about shipping and all that crap. My motor from autozone was $60 with lifetime warranty.

edit: now I actually read the thread. And I basically said what was already said...
