Can I Replace Just The Footwell Blower Motor?
I need to replace one of my footwell blowers and am wondering whether there's a way to replace just the motor and not the entire housing? At $180.00+ per unit it would be nice if theres a way.
I checked the archives and couldn't find any thread that addresses this. Anyone ever replaced just the motor? If so, what motor did you use, and what's the trick for removing the fan cage from the motor shaft? Thanks

I have a couple of footwell blower assemblies used for $45 each + shipping if that would work for you
Regards, Andrew M

Andrew, if they run quietly and smoothly, I'll take both.
Should I just purchase on EBAY? Thanks

To answer the original question, I believe one of the guys on Rennlist did exactly that, replaced the motors only. I THINK he got them from MSC Supply, similar. Might want to check the history over there. I think the guy that did it sold his white carrera to current user Old Man Neri, from memory. Can't remember the original guy's username, but he's still on over there.

By the way Andrew, will there be any taxes/duties on these to the US?
