Title: electric windows install
Post by: Madone_si on 27 September 2005, 17:04: Does anyone know what cabling I need to wire up for VAG electric windows to work in Mk1 golf cab?

I've got the electric windows - but the wires were cut and I'm going to use two VAG switch on the drivers side (control both sides) and one on the passenger side.

Any help is most appreicated.

thanks.
