With a salvage sourced motor component, you'll have to perform some surgery. With an entire replacement mirror, you'll have to do a paint match. Let us know what you decide.

Aside: are you sure yours isn't simply deactivated?

The motor works but it is very slow (takes 25% longer than the passenger's side) and its sounds "sick" and tired.
