Default Holy shizzle, $100+ for A/C blower motor?

Damn, I was gonna get my G/F a new blower motor for her GTP and all the stores want over $100 for one. WTF? I remember when you could get those bitches for $25! Guess she's just gonna have to turn up her radio a little louder so she don't hear that POS squeak.

I looked at some for our trucks and the cheapest one I've found so far is $126! Bullshit!!!

They are usually located underneath the glove box up against the firewall, pretty easy to swap out on the trucks. The one in her Gran Prix is a PITA because the wires that plug into the motor are super-short and it's a bitch to get it unclipped when you are laying upside down on the floorboard and your fingers are so cold that you can't squeeze anything.

I still don't see how they get over $100 for these things. They are just a little piece of **** motor that runs 5 different speeds. What a rip.
