tricky one! help pls!
« on: 07 October 2010, 16:38 »
someone pls move this if it isnt in the right thread...

bought gti interior off fleabay, not picking up until tomorrow, BUT i didnt realise, bein a thick t**t, that gti's had electric windows, wheras mine doesnt, so nowhere for the window winders to go lol.

option 1 - make holes and do it with window winders
option 2 - change to electric windows

im guessing option 1 is gonna be easier? or if option 2 isnt too hard or expensive i may do that... any help guyssssss!?

Option one would be a doddle and you can look into option two later if you want....  depends if you go for original wndow kit or aftermarket which is easier IMO as they use the existing mechanism.

Just go for option 1 as it would take about 4 minutes and then look into option 2 later. So, pretty much what soundnillusion said. :laugh:

Hmmm its a toughie, think i would root for option 2 but if you want a quick fix then 1 is for you!
I'm a bit of a pervert for things looking tidy, but when you get leccy windows you have to replace them again to get rid of the holes!
That is if you ever want leccy windows  :huh:

If you're re-upholstering, Make sure you have the Mk3 "Recaro's" Very comfy and pretty seats...
A link to what they could look like ;)
