Which fits a 2012 TSX sedan better?

Both list the 2009–2014 TSX sedan, so either should fit. The Acura-branded unit states OEM-spec fit and CU2 chassis coverage, which gives more confidence for a sedan.

Does either fit the TSX wagon?

Only the JC Whitney listing mentions wagon trims. The Acura-branded assembly lists sedan submodels only, so check your VIN before ordering it for a wagon.

The Acura-branded unit states a hardened steel gear and an included circuit breaker, which are durability pluses. The JC Whitney unit does not state gear material, and some buyers received damaged parts, so inspect it before installing.

Is the Acura-branded one worth the extra?

If its price is higher, the stated OEM-spec fit and hardened gear justify it for a long-term repair. For a cheap fix on an older car, the JC Whitney unit is reasonable if it arrives undamaged.

Do both include the motor?

Yes. Both are motor-and-regulator assemblies for the front driver side, not regulator-only parts.

What should I check when the JC Whitney part arrives?

Check for bends or warping and confirm all hardware shown in the listing is in the box. Report damage or missing parts before installing.

Driver Side Power Window Regulator Assembly for Acura TSX (2009–2014) vs Front Left Window Regulator - Compatible with 2009 - 2014 Acura TSX 2010 2011 2012 2013

Both are front-left power window regulator assemblies with motors for the 2009–2014 Acura TSX, so the real choice is fitment confidence versus price. The Acura-branded assembly states hardened steel gears, an included circuit breaker and OEM-spec fit, which suits a keeper car or a wagon/trim not clearly covered. The JC Whitney unit is the cheaper generic option, but buyer reports of bent parts and missing hardware mean inspect it on arrival.
