cory,
that look like it...but really if your going in that deep wh ynot just buy the maguchi motor for lile 10.00 and replace the motor?
Since your doing it yourself its not hard just opening the housing and replacing the motor.

Here is the write up i followed. It was almost dead on...but this will give you the road map if you plan on doing this your self. Mine was done a year ago and I have had zero problems.

Buggs,

Did you have to take the window out to get the actuator out?

Thanks,

To be honest I would rather spend $10 bucks. : )

My main issue is that there seems to be a bit of confusion on which is the correct replacement motor. I want to make sure i'm putting the motor with the correct torque and power figures in. Some of the motors also need to be modified because the shaft is not D shaped.

All that sounds like a head ache to me.....

I can send you the part number....The only modification i did was to make a flat spot on the rounded shaft ot the motor...i just used a grin ding wheel and took my time checking fit every so often...took no more than 3 mins to grind and check for fit

You could also use an inexpensive Dremel tool to grind the flat spot
