Help Needed

[SFV]

Hi All

I am a newbie on your forum. I recently purchaced a 1998 Rav for my wife and she is enjoying it a lot. However, this morning the drivers side electric window switch/motor decided to die and the local dealers quoted my £290 to replace !!!

Is this reasonable ?

Thanks

Hi Bob

Yes that was parts & labour. Would it be difficult to fit the motor myself if I am not really mechanically orientated ?
