Actuator Plus on eBay
Anyone ever bought door lock actuators from this seller. High volume and good reviews, and pretty nice business model.

If you don't want to fix them yourself for $7 then this is the way to go. The hardest part of the job is getting them out of the door. Replacing the motor once it's out is easy.

I noticed that someone is selling the motor with the flat spindle, which I assume makes it a turnkey install/repair, once you take it apart....vs the original DIY thread, which said something about having to replace or file down the round spindle.

These were the exact same ones that I bought and installed around May 2018.

They work perfectly! I highly recommend getting the flat ones b/c its easy to pop the old motor out and put the new ones in. Just a heads up, the driver door was a lot more difficult because I had to mess with the key door lock and door handle. I really hope you don't have to change that one lol. And be VERY careful not to break any cables.

Is this the place that offers you warranty for life if you return the old core to them?
If so, I used them a year and a half ago and it all worked great. Product arrived quickly looking clean and new. My indy mechanic did the labor for me. Still working perfectly.
**If you are not 100% confident in your DIY skills, go hire someone to do the labor. Go to Amayama or OEMvehicleparts.com and start pricing door pieces you could break.
My dealer quoted me $900, and I think I was all in with tax at $400, and that included him doing the new foam ring on the speaker while he was in the door.
***UPDATE - I used this place on Amazon:
Couldn't have worked better.
