Neil.

let me look around for my writeup I did some years back. The whole job will
take 30 minutes if you know what you are doing and have the whole assembly.
It is not hard, but you must know what to do. I may have a passenger
mechanism, with no motor. Your cleaned up motor and my mechanism might be a
solution. I will check tomorrow.
