blower motor nightmare

:banghead: BMW could not have found a worse location to put the blower motor in a 93 325I. I have just finished replacing one in mine. It has two plastic fans that have to be pressed off and on the new motor, but the motor and fans don't have enough room to be removed from the car. I have repaired cars all my life but never have I seen one like this. I had to finally resort to cutting the sheet metal body to gain access. Good ol USA builds them sooo simple. The dealer wants $360. for this motor. I love the rest of the car but I wish the engineers had to replace just one blower motor.
