Excellent help. Just finished mine. 2.5 hours on first try. Had some wind noise, so re-adjusted. All done in 3.5 hours.

As mentioned in another comment, my original and replacement motor bracket had 4 screws instead of the 3 in this write-up see attached photo, and I had to temporarily remove the gearbox plate using one small Torx screw to get access to 2 of the four screws. All pretty obvious, but different from what is shown here.

Also, my tip for adjusting the window is to pay attention to the gap along the angled front edge of the glass. Compare it to the other side window that you are not replacing. Mine was tight up against the A-pillar - I could not even slide a fingernail in front of the window except near the very bottom, and then just barely.

Thanks for the article, and the fine quality replacement regulator.
