Don't do it, manual windows are faster with fewer problems. Electric windows are nice and slow when they work.

True, but if they're greased and adjusted properly they can be pretty quick. After some effort mine take about 4 seconds each way and it's nice to be able to open them all on the fly.

Mine are pretty quick having cleaned and greased them. They are about 4 seconds each way too. At times I wish they were manual like my 2002 Tii. No window tool needed when your wife rolls her window down. :-?
My friend MikeS converted his CS to manual windows.

eBay is sardine can motor, not 74 as advertised. Track should be same.

Mine did the same thing, did you try adjusting the upper position stop buffer? If you unscrew it a little (if it isnt all compressed from age) it will prevent the window from loading up and sticking when it hits the top of the travel.

I am in the Ft Myers area

The mount for the later motor is slightly different though it can be modified.

I had two motors somewhere but I can't find them

Sorry
