Electric Window Motor

Does anyone know where to get replacement Electric-Life window motors from?
The ones fitted to mine are Bosch items. They seem to be available from the States, but I was thinking they would be available from the UK.

Hi,
One of Electric Life switches broke - so I ordered them from the States. All got sent through OK. Problem is cost - you will get stung for VAT on the part AND cost of shipping. There is a also a CUSTOMS levy - it added up to 50% of the cost - rip off!!  :cry:

Then again, the switch now works. One thing I will say - the units are purchased from the US - but made in Italy! So if you could track down the manufacturer in Italy…..

Good luck  :)

I have a set of bosch motors from electric life mechanisms if you want them.

I removed the mechanisms and motors from my old Sportline and replaced the lot with a complete new cabby setup from GSF.
I replaced because the tracks had had it. Are you sure this isn't the problem with yours? The plastic tube that the track goes into had come off allowing the track to pick up muck in the door.

The motors I'm 99% certain are fine.

Cheers,

Ross
