The salvage yard flap motor works, but in my hamfistedness.....I manage to break the delicate arm that attaches to the motor upon my installation attempt.  After many attempts at gluing in back together with no success.....I guess I am headed back to the junk yard later this coming week to see if I can scavenge this delicate part.

Upon closer examination at the yard yesterday, it does appear as though the motors are different?  Wondering if by some miracle those little plastic arms might be the same between the C4's and our cars?  Getting to the flap motor on the C4 platform is much more challenging that on the Type 44's.  There's a lot more room in the cowl area of the V8, than the 95 A6 I was attempting to get a better look at the flap motor on.
