Custom Swirly Black- 2001 WS6 M6
I got mine from the autoparts store as well.
Few facts about those;
1. The are re-manufactured, this means that aren't the same quality as OEM and therefore WON'T last as long
2. Most come with a lifetime warranty, but changing them is harder than running up to the store
3. You will kill the aftermarket/re-manufactured one unless you change the wiring, or change your habits
4. Lack of current/voltage is what kills these motors, and the stock wiring isn't up to par
Autotrix makes a new wiring kit to improve the functionality and life of the motor.
For me, after changing them countless times, I do these 2 things and haven't replaced one since.
1. Roll the windows up or down ONLY WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING (Battery; Running= 13-14 volts, off= 11-12 volts)
2. Roll ONE window up or down at a time
These 2 things help ensure the motor gets the proper voltage/current.

I got mine from advance auto. Mine last about 1-1.5 yrs before I change them. the autotrix kit has helped alot.
