    Default Aftermarket Power Windows

    Hi Guys,
    Am looking at aftermarket power windows for my dunnydoor. Anyone know a good supplier of a kit? Or has anyone fitted a kit?...
    Have trawled all over ebay for holden bits but now thinking aftermarket may be the way to go.

    Cheers

    You will need quite a few bits including door trims, motors and switches. You're better off finding someone with a car that has power windows wrecking and buy all the bits off them.

    Don't understand why you would go aftermarket when you can get genuine second hand stuff quite cheap.

    OKay, found a guy on ebay (the link that Archers suggested) reckon he can do a conversion kit for $550, He also reckons most of the time you dont need to change the BCM but if there is a problem holden can FLASH you existing BCM to run the windows???

    I also dont want to bother changing the door cards. So ill run the windows from the center consol and cover the holes with a holden badge or something. Old mate from ebay reckons a lot of people do this.

    Comments?

    I got genuine regulators, door looms and main switch of ebay for under $200. You just need to be patient and wait for a bargain. I have door looms to suit a VX for sale should you need them.
    You will need to connect the rear door switches because the rear windows won't work from the main switch without them connected. But there is probably a way around that.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.
