I acquired a couple of E28 rear window motors a while back and one of them wouldn't hit a lick. It's not an item you would return since you won't find an exchange in the 30 days they give you as it's a pretty rare part. So, I got the electric motors from the front windows, leaving the gearbox on the regulator. As it turns out, they are identical, and now I have another set of working window gearboxes.
Front motor on the right, rear motor on the left.
