celsis Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Guys, can anyone tell me if it's possible to rig up electric windows on my 1.3? I've only got manuals at present and it would be great to get them going up and down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy_GTi Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Sure it souldn't be that difficult if you're ok with electrics. You'd need the window regulators and the buttons off an electric model and then just find a live and an earth to wire it all in with. I imagine you'd have to drill holes in the door to rivet on the motor and rail which means you'd be best to source a door that has/had electric windows on it so you can see where the holes should be.

celsis Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 WHAT! lol Seriously! Also very rare to see anything over a 1.4. I think only 1.3s qnd 4s were imported. That's why it costs me a bleedin fortune to get anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
