Door acutators.

Just a thought. From some forum said that you can buy a Toyota Corolla actuator and it would come good with the GS's.

It was mentioned on the following thread:

Nobody mentioned a part number though... I am interested too since my driver side just went out.

Search for DIY actuator, there's a long thread on this, I fixed mine with the motors from Ebay discussed in that thread. Got 5 motors for about $10, can't get much cheaper than that! It takes a little extra work to crack the housing open and replace the motor but it's not that hard considering how much money it saved me.

The ebay seller ran out of motors. Kind of hard to find a source that doesn't require you to buy 1000 of them.

I didn't know that. That sucks, I guess I'm glad I've got 4 more sitting here when I need them.

or we could ALL pool together and buy the 100 (how much could they be neways) and just send everyone a equal amount....i mean that would completely do 25 gs's....im sure 25 people have this problem and even if some people only need 1 or 2 they could have some spares

Just in-case anyone was wondering about the price of one from the dealership, I bought one last week from Stevens Creek Lexus in San Jose, CA for $93.00.

The actuator or the motor?
