Need new window motor!

I bought a new motor for my passenger window a little over a year ago and installed it myself...it was okay for a few months and then it came apart, the top of the motor literally broke off. So I tried fixing it...then it happened again so I tried epoxy and somehow it broke again.

I got the motor from Autozone so I'm not going back there...I also tried pep boys and NAPA and found nothing. Besides the dealership that's going to charge me an arm and a leg, where else is a reputable place that I can get one from?

Please help if you can...thanks!

Matt

screw the rebuilt window motors from the auto parts stores. I bought two and they both went bad, within a year. got them from Rockauto I finally bit the bullet and got factory replacements from Grubbs. They said the new motors have been improved because of reliability issues with the original ones.

Yeah, I might have to do that I just really didn't want to spend $200 on a motor.
