95' Rear Gate Lock Problem.. need advice

My 95 XLT rear gate lock is not working. The motor in the gate just buzzes. Pulled the panel off and the actuator rod is not moving. I assume the motor in the gate needs to be replaced. None of the rods appear to be binding up. Is this a good assumption, and how do I replace it? Looks like the original one is not screwed/;bolted in but perhaps pop rivited in. Any advice is appreciated. Also, is this a dealer part only?

thanks,
Mike

The original one will definately be held in by a rivet that you will need to drill out.
