New vs old power window motor

Hi

Has anybody purchased new style power window motor and dealt with install into old style mechanism?

I took old motor out of mechanism, it does have round output with two flat sides and new oem motor offered online is with torx style output

(and does not seems to come with replacement pulley to deal with that problem)

Solution might be design and 3D print new gear?

Thanks for on-topic comments

I'd definitely try to just 3D print it for that price, done properly with the right material, it should last quite a while. I've 3d printed gears for meat slicer gears before and they're still going strong 8 years now.
