Update: Calais conversion!!!!

I finally bit the bullet and decided, no statesman conversion.. instead i will go calais conversion will post pics as i go. Keep watching this thread

 

[DCEIVDU]

Helllp!!!

Ok thought i would just wing doing the power window conversion but it's not going well.. Basically i have the calais doors with the power window regulators in them and the wiring for the switch on each door. However, i have no idea what to do from here. If anyone can shed some light on my predicament, i would be very grateful. What parts do i need to finish this install? i have a series 1 VN Executive. Any how to's would be great. ive read the one for if you are putting your own regulators in but yeah i couldnt take much from it.

 

[ShawtyNate]

do you have the module for the power windows?

 

[DCEIVDU]

do you have the module for the power windows?

No just the Calais doors with power window mechanisms and the wires with the doors. Need everything else

 

[ShawtyNate]

I would of just put the Calais doors on yours. Ripped all the electronics out and swapped it over.

Probs will try and get a grand for this.

Thats a bit ambitious!

You would have to spend more than that to get it in return.

 

[DCEIVDU]

That's what I'm doing. I'm putting the Calais doors on. Just need the rest of the Electrics. Andim not selling it anymore masterofreality
