This is about an hour job, assuming new motor was needed. I did this job recently and got new motor from dealer(ar. $200) after trying another motor with whole mechanism that didn't fit( was only $90). There are 2 screws holding motor to mechanism and 2 plugs connection. My guess they replaced whole mechanism that is not direct replacement. I would go back to that repair shop and demand that they take out what they installed and install original motor. Good luck Leon 85 Subwagen Westy Brian Sherburne wrote: > When I purchased my '91 GL the person I bought it from was in the middle of > replacing the passenger side power window motor.
