making windows automatic.... - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #5859 12 posts Started by slipgun
Ok it seems like this must have been covered but I cant find it in a search so sorry here we go again, does anyone know if we can make auto windows? I was thinking putting in the motor and mounting a switch somewhere... what you all think?
I've done it in my car using a Spal kit from eBay, and it works great. >smile.gif> The windows roll up and down pretty quickly and quietly, and installation wasn't too hard at all. In the image below, you can see how I mounted the motor.

do you want to make a HOW TO For this one too Coomer??
coomer, when u did this..... is there a switch on ur driver door to power up and down the window ? did u also do power locks?
My switches are actually in my middle console, as shown in the photo below. Also, I did install power door locks on my car. I may do a how-to on the installation when I've got some time on my hands. >wink.gif>
