Default Sunroof motor possibly going out

My sunroof hesitates every now and then when opening an closing and I'm pretty sure it might be the motor . Anyone got any onfo on where to get a new one? Besides dealer? I have googled it and really haven't come up with anything. I don't think it's the switch but well see. Any input is appreciated.

Good news... Might not be your motor at all... Mine hesitated, clicked and stalled 2 years ago and I also thought it was the motor... All I did was completely (100%) degreased the tracks and re-applied white lithium grease (not too much) and it has worked like a charm since then... I would suggest trying this before spending on a motor... Good luck and let us know how it turned out...
