Default New window motors installed...

I installed my new window motors today. Got the call from Kragen that my order came in, so i picked em up and started ripping apart the doors.. Long story short... The new motors are awesome! They are Seimens brand, cost me 74.99 each at Kragen. Quiet and faster than stock.. and they came with nuts and screws to replace the rivits you have to drill out. Definately nice. But since the motors are new, you cant get a core back on them.. so i have some motors sittin here useless.. if i cant find a place to take them for some cash back, ill toss em....

Auto Zone sells the same Siemens motors with a lifetime warranty for 50 bucks. Did you check there? Trust me man I know how good it feels to get those motors fixed...not being able to roll your windows down is a bitch.

Anyone have the part number for the AutoZone brand? If have read posts about using Ford motors. Anyone got those part numbers? We used to have 3 Cobras and those power windows flew up and down.
