Re: Help about motors

I would guess that statistically, the driver's side window gets 75% or more usage on average. (Based on my own experience.) Of course it is more likely that the lower usage motor reduces cost by designing for the lower life span. Say it cost 50 cents less per unit, after 1 million units, a lot of money has added up.
