66 NYr window motor price?

[NapaAllen]

Hello,
I've found a 66 NYr driver window motor here and I haven't found any others really. Is this price crazy? $395?

NOS Mopar Power Window Motor 1965-9 B & C Body Models Left Front Door - Hiltop Auto Parts

I think it's crazy.

Two alternatives... The first I know works with the '65 and I see no reason why a '66 is any different. WINDOW LIFT MOTOR (NEW) fits: CHRYSLER FIFTH AVE IMPERIAL LEBARON NEW YORKER | eBay You'll have to work with the different plug, but there's tons of ways around it.

The second is 1965 Power Window Motor Replacement using an aftermarket Dorman motor. Drilling holes in the door over the motor fasteners to eliminate pulling the entire regulator is much easier than the method described though.

Crazy until somebody pays it. There are alternatives as BigJohn suggested.

Hilltop is a NOS seller that always asks top dollar. They aren't worth that much but if you want NOS that's usually your only choice.

That's ridiculous, send me a pm as I have a bunch of them. Which door do you need? C Shaft

Don't have a clue why anyone would have want to pay the price for NOS stuff that is hidden in the door anyway. If you have a motor from your car, yank it out, and follow Big Johns instructions on how to clean it up, replace the guts if necessary, test it and put it back in. If you don't have a motor, buy one off of someone here that fits your car, clean it up etc etc. Probably cost you less than $100 and a couple of hours to do the whole process.

The Dorman motor operated so vastly superior than my OE motor in the driver's door, I went and ordered three more for my 67 long roof
