Ebay window motor question

PhillyGT · September 14th, 2011, 05:11 PM

I need a new drivers side window motor and i saw some place on ebay that has them for around 40 bucks.The place is called "discount body parts".Has anyone bought anything from them??. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0QQ...sQ26Q5ffviQ3d1

I have looked at their parts before.. They have great feedback for the amount of items sold. Id give them a try,

I've had more than one of those motors that suddenly starting working again after I took it out, looked at it, and stuck it back in. Strange..

Yeah i already tried.It just slowed down and stopped working one day.I wouldnt mind so much if it was the passenger side window.

I just got my new window motor in the mail that i ordered.Heres the problem,the mounting holes dont have threads?Has anyone else had this problem?? Do i have to get a tap&die(not sure if its the right word) set??

Rivets are another option. Tapping should work provided there is enough material to get more than a few threads and you don't need a complete set, only one single tap in the size you want and a few $$.

Theres enough to bite into.Ill grab the tap set tonight.I got a harbor freight right around the corner.

Mine window motor didnt have threads, but the direction in the box said the screws were self taping and the were. no need for tap.

Mine didnt come with screws or directions.lol

I got the motor in today with no problems.I just reused the bolts from the old motor,i didnt have to tap anything.The new motor weighs about half as much as the old one and is smaller so getting it back in was no problem.Cant beat the price
