Just wanted give Stacy a shout out! Window motor works great (thanks!) If you have any questions - give him a call. If he doesn't answer, he'll call you right back!

Old one was full of water. If you ever have your door panel off, remove the 2 rubber plugs in the bottom of the motor housing. Then it can drain if anything gets in there. Poor design in my opinion.
