Walker570 Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Well any automotive 12v would work. Not too difficult to obtain, I had mine off flea bay and lucky the seller was in the next village. I'm sure model shops and places would stock motors but my thoughts where that these window winder motors are strong and powerful so unlikely to suddenly burn out.
