You can try it, but it sounds too good to be true. I would try your local parts supplier, that way the warranty stays local.

That's the same motor I got 6 months ago. It works perfect! Of course I still don't know how long it'll hold up in the long run, but at this price I'm not too concerned unless it dies within another year or two.

OP, I've also purchased the blower motor from that same seller---it's been working great for the past 7 months, but it's a little noisier than stock on the slowest fan speed (only noticeable when the radio is off).

I purchased this same blower motor (TYC # 700044 - eBay (Nissan # 27220-7J201) listed as a 4th gen motor) over 2 years ago before they even listed them for the 5/5.5 gens. That was over 50k miles ago. It works flawlessly. Buy it!!

The only difference between the 4th gen and the 5th gen TYC motors (beside the part #) is the small air tube assembly. I just used the original one from my bad motor.
