I don't see any reason why you can't, should be the same internals.

Once you look at hobby parts, each manufacturer has its own part number and the ingenuity of the members was to find sone replaceable motors. There are some reverse polarity motors as well. It is somewhat of a minefield.
Please look at the sticky DIY and start your search there.

I would like to add. I had bad luck with installing "new motors". That solution did not work for me. I believe it is ALL made in china. I ended up using the Ebay actuators and that solution worked just fine. If you are that picky about parts and want the most reliable, you are going to have to shell out $350 at the dealer for ONE actuator. I have also seen refurbished units but I am not too keen on that either.
The only thing is the connector pins on the actuator did not line up perfect. I used a flat blade screw driver to push up the pins a little bit, toward the "top side" on the connector. With a little bit of finesse, the male connector clicked right into place. If you don't hear the click, you have to keep trying.

Have to replace rear passenger side door lock actuator.
Does anyone have recent experience, good or bad, with the chinese made ones?
Judging from the photos, there seem to be only 1 or 2 manufacturers and I'd like to know which one to buy.
Cheers,
Johan
