When I purchased my '91 GL the person I bought it from was in the middle of
replacing the passenger side power window motor.  He had trouble, so he
sent it to a repair shop to have them do the install.  A couple of weeks
went by and I finally was able to pick it up.

This is where it gets weird.  When I got in the van to check it over one
last time, the seller told me that the repair shop had to relocate the
motor higher inside the door thus having to remove the speaker.  Frustrated
with the situation yet eager to drive home, 150 miles away, I drove off
with my new wheels.

My question is, can I move the motor to it's original location or was the
repair shop legit in saying that this is the only place to mount the new
motor?  I think I was taken for a ride.  Plus, I have no speaker in the door.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian
'91 GL
