Window regulator motors, any repurpose uses?

[ajchien]

Just finished replacing the window regulator/motor on my wife's Honda Element.

Looks like the wires broke off from the plastic parts in the old regulator. The motor still runs. Well, not wanting to throw away a working little 12v motor... Has anyone found a secondary use for these?

I guess it'll likely wind up in my storage for a few years before I toss it out. And the week after I toss it, I'll think of a great use for it.

I've used 1 to rotate the chute on a snowblower, seeing your in LA that probably wont be helpfull. I'm going to try and use one for screen masking on a hometheater.
