New window working in reverse order

I just installed a new regulator and motor that I purchased on Amazon. it works, but the problem is that it goes down when I flip the switch up, and goes up when I flip the switch down. It the beginning I thought I had the connector backwards, but is a one-way-in connector. Any ideas if I can fix it or how to fix it without sending it back? I have a road trip in 3 days.

Comments welcome.

That common problem with the aftermarket window motors. You need to rotate the magnet casing 180 degrees.

Had no problems with the ones we carry.
