Converting to lezzy windows can't be that expensive. You can buy both regulators and motors for about £50 or less (I got driver's side for £20, it just depends how hard you look and who you talk to). Then the switches you can buy for a tenner or so from ebay, or nick them from the scrapyard, and finally the wiring, I'm sure that it's not a massive job doing it, can't comment on how to or the depth of the job as I've never done it but surely it's just a few wires.

Yeah I know,but me being me thought the door cards would just fit straight in,not realising... And thought it would be a bargain to get gti seats in good condition no rips or tears,for 30quid... And now whack another 50 on top and that's two decent rust free wings that I actually need... The leccy windows can wait for now me thinks!! Unless I can get them literally dirt cheap,will keep lookin! X

It's just that I don't think it would look nice having 2 blanks where the winders would go when you do eventually convert to electric windows.

It'll be fine for me hun!! Will annoy me more havin interior sat in my bedroom for 3weeks while my dad gets off his lazy ass to help me sort door cards and looms out,cos I dunno how to do it... All for the sake of a blank :) I don't mind hun! And if we jus drill as little as we need for the winders,with the plugs in after it won't look so bad :)

You lot do realize that the car will need a dash loom too, right?

I converted my 5 door then ripped it all out and have got to do it on the three.

Where all my moneys went.

Not a hard job, just an annoying job.  :grin:

If you've got windows, mirrors are no extra work really.  :smiley:
