David,
In the past using the same rules quoted above, the modification you are describing would have been deemed illegal. The rule refers to the fact the mounting holes may not facilitate mounting the motor on your robot using the provides holes. The rule allows you to modify so that the motor can be mounted to your robot without changing the operation or power output. In the case of the window motor, the transmission is considered an integral part of the motor.
