Passenger headlight is no longer working and I have ordered a new motor. I was hoping to get some help on how to replace this? Anyone done this before?

You have to get the headight up. Then remove the black plastic bezel that surounds the fixture. Then remove the body colored lid. This should give you some room to work. The motor is held on by 3 bolts. Remove those bolts and unplug the wiring harness from the headlight control module under the assembly. Watch how the lifting linkage is positioned when removing it.
Now reverse the process with install of the new motor. It is actually pretty easy. Good Luck

You sure the problem is the motor and not just the gears?
