4th gen headlight motors?

I couldn't find anything in a search. Anyway, I was wondering if 4th gen headlight motors would work on these cars, or if they can easily be modified to work. The motor would be out of a '94 Formula.

I don't know about the 4th gen but rebuilding the old ones is easy, check out topdownsolutions.com at the top of the page for the kit. about 9 per motor.

It doesn't say anything about fixing a motor that doesn't run at all. This one has been taken off the car and tested & still doesn't run, so it's not a wiring problem.
