Hey Rick

try here

I sold mine on ebay for $15 recently that was surplus to my needs - was for a Gen 1 though.

Ebay also had a few as well - Gen 2 as well.

I paid $55 at REPCO (we know what it stands for...), but they can be had closer to $35 with some shopping around.

I had a look at doing mine because it continues to get stuck with dirt no matter how many times i clean it. I know you can access it through the internal panel, but i never went as far as taking it out because i didn't have a replacement. If you find one it would be good to know.

yes you can buy it... dont forget they're both different between sedan and wagons.

Mine one when I bought it, it was full of crap inside the mast and cleaned out and worked like a treat..

its normally around $35 to $60 depending where you find it.

For the motor AND mast andrew?

Trying to fit up the replacement mast was a complete PITA. Gave up and purchased a complete unit from U-Pull-It at the price you mention. Plus i think the gears were stripped (wife + carwash + radio = FAIL)

Was much easier as a complete unit and took 10min to swap out.
