Are you sure the motor is bad? Check the wiring. I only ask because I have had this problem on several Supras and it was always the wiring somewhere in front was damaged from a prior collision. I'm not saying it's not possible but in the all Mk3 supras I've owned and the many others I've repaired, I have never had to replace a headlight motor.
If you are sure the motor is bad, check the junkyard (the ones by me never have any supras) or craigslist and ebay to see if anyone is parting out one. If you can't find one locally, I can ship you one but it will be cheaper if you can find one locally. Good luck.

After physically checking, I have a left side assembly from an 89. I also have a right side assembly from an 87 and they use different plugs. You may want to check if they are interchangeable between the years, if they are you can just cut the plug off your old motor and splice it onto the one I have. If you're into that sort of thing.
