    Default power window switch in door

    Hi guys, i want to move the electric window switch block from the center console to the front door, the thing i want to know is if there is a way i use smaller gauge wire to run into the front door as i think all the wires will be to thick, also the central locking only locks the front doors but will unlock all four if i lock the backs manually, the car is a vn with vr statesman interior and wiring.

    cheers

    Only way to do it without problems is to use relays to switch the high current (like the your tin topped fuel pump relay) and have the door switches operating them

    To my thinking, you would require 2x SPDT (changeover) relays per window. Making a total 8 relays (unless anyone can think of a better way?)
    Power is measured in DECIBEL

    each switch has to have this circuit so if it has 4 doors then this circuit x 4
