The Panasonic motor bucket differs too so you'll need the whole YDK motor service assembly and it will swap over just fine

Im pretty sure Panasonic is YDK - Or the same style.

The only ones I know that differs are the Ameteks and Samsungs of older models.

I have the opposite problem, I just bought a used DC24 YDK motor on eBay (just the motor, not the motor bucket assembly as well), but have been sent a Panasonic, so I guess that trying to fit this into the YDK bucket is a waste of time?
But if they were to supply a motor bucket as well then it would be OK?
