All you need is the motor. Most places sell them at reasonable prices. Do yourself a favor and do NOT go with a dealer motor - you'll pay out the ***.

Follow this link for replacement. Good luck.

I would recommend using rivets, like the stock motor does. I thought I had a bad window motor, but it turned out that the nuts came loose, and it was causing the motor to just flop around in there. It's really not that much harder to pull the regulator and motor out and rivet the new motor onto it. Then, you'll never have the problem of the nuts possibly coming loose, like mine did. You could probably even get a rivet gun in the holes drilled in the door panel.
