If they are the same then I have a rear motor here, still in the car IIRC.

or if I were him I would forget the motor and buy a manual handle to fit instead. Take the blanking plate off and there is an allan key hole to wind it open/closed manauly. Guess how I had to find that out! Yes, in the rain on holiday with the sunroof open. Mates very kindly put a tarp over my roof held down by police no parking traffic cones we had for theenxt day. :lol:

He's selling the car so he wants everything to work . Mark across the road is breaking a 300 V8 so he'll have the motors spare . :D
