I am familiar with the NBD paper, we used 4 CIMs attached to Dewalts for our drivetrain this past year. However, I've never seen anyone use the window motors with the Dewalts. Did you have to machine a coupling to go from the 8 pointed star output to the sun gear inside the Dewalt? Do you have any details on that?
