Scribbler Motor Replacement
Does anyone know the part number for the Scribbler motor? The Solarbotics GM2 - Gear Motor 2 Offset Shaft (Product code : RB-Sbo-01) looks similar. But so does the Solarbotics GM8 - Gear Motor 8 - Offset Shaft (Product code : RB-Sbo-06). As does the Pololu BCM 60:1 Gear Motor Offset Output (Product code : RB-Pol-70).
There are several capacitors and a small plug soldered to the unit. Does Parallax sell the assembled unit with those parts soldered on?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Erco replaced both of this motors with the GM2 because the slower speed and higher torque helps his encoders work better.
I think the capacitors are 0.1 uF disc capacitors and are readily available, but you can remove the old ones and solder them on the new motor.
