Default Headlight Motor!

Will the headlight motor from a 97 T/A fit on the 02 T/A. Are they the same model? They look the same but I dont wanna buy it and then it be the wrong one!

Im not for sure if the mounts will match up though. Arent the LT1s towards the top and the LS1 kinda below the lights?? If I were you i would just get a motor out of an 98-02.

do you need a new motor, sometimes it is the just the plastic gear that fades and you can get a brass one.

Its the gear that has gone bad, I want to replace gears, but Id rather buy a cheap Motor on here that someone is parting out before I do the whole gear swap!
