I have looked into that one. It is not the same. I had a local auto parts order one in and it turned out to be the A1 Cardone you mentioned. The plug shape is different and the bolt for the wiper arm is smaller on the A1 motor.

Well that sucks, you might have to walk it into the dealer then.

I am probably going to have to go the salvage yard route. I cannot find it on Ebay, so I broke down and went to the "stealership" and it's going to be like $300. Apparently, it is not a 1-piece unit. Nearly $200 for the motor and $100 for the electronic part of it.

I did some testing on the motor and the drive shaft spins with 12V hooked to it. It just does not seem to have enough torque left in it to have any load on the shaft. So maybe if I cannot find this one at a salvage yard, maybe I will just have to buy the motor only.

Yep, salvage yard. Found mine for $25. Took the hole thing, arms and all.
