Got the new motor. I bought the $40 one instead of the OEM $150.

The new motor has a pig tail with a connector on it. This does not fit the oem wire harness.

Has anyone else got the cheaper motor installed? Did you just simply snip the connectors and wire it together?

Does the Blue go to the light blue and the Red to the cream wires?

can you take the connector off the old motor and wire it to the new motor? you may have to test the wires on OEM harness to see which wire is up and which is down, then put power to each of the new motor wires to see which is up and which is down. If you wire it wrong, the window will go up when the down button is pushed.

nope, connector is molded to the motor.

Just going to get some spade connectors, If I get it wrong, flip them around and away I go.

thanks
