@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I tried the motor on Amazon you had listed. When I bolt it up I can maybe get 2 out of 3 bolts it’s like the motor was not thick enough. When I tried it out I would spin but not link up with the window. I tried to put the stock back in but it seems to be too thick to get back in. I hope I didn’t snug the aftermarket one up too much where I closed the gap between the bracket and door

Thank you so much for this video! I just did this on my 04 GT today. Followed your instructions and also loosened but did NOT remove the two nuts for the regulator close to the window motor bolts like others have mentioned. It was a piece of cake. Took all of 30 or 45 minutes to finish and ive never done a window motor before. Excellent how to video!

I went and bought a motor for my driver side window I watched this video and beat on my old motor and it came back to life lol thanks for saving me $65

If you loosen to two nuts that are go to the regulator next to the motor it comes out much easier. I replaced mine with a doorman with a lifetime warranty for $60. It is a little thinner so it is easier to install. Works perfect now.

Great job. On my mach 1 when the window motor froze, I took the door panel off and lightly tapped the circular part of the motor that you can see through the hole and it unbound the motor and freed it up.

I finally fixed my daughters window! I had a new motor for drivers side and wouldn’t you know it was the wrong motor! I recalled your tip on tapping old motor part and success! Now my daughter has both windows working! Now I just have to figured out the ac blowing hot!

Thanks me and my man followed your directions and we got the job done just to find out it was off track on the regulator lol but hey thanks I just happy we saved 318 dollars

If you would have loosened the bolts holding the regulator on, the window motor would have been easier to pull out. Just a helpful tip. Those would be the golden/brass 8/10mm bolts you see in the panel. Also, if you have a heat gun you can heat up the factory insulation (white plastic stuff) and pull it off the door. Just try not to overheat it and get it on your hands. The glue holding it on is very sticky. This way you can go ahead and just put the insulation back on and not tear it.

I noticed that on the 96 and up its a little bit easier to get out than the 94-95. I think the metal on the door was slightly different. I changed both my drivers motors on my 94 gt and my 96 cobra.
