electric window switches?

[molegti]

I believe the blanks are there on all electric window cars otherwise VW would need to make different door cards. The blanks are right but the switches on the dash look wrong. I still suspect its been adapted and they either couldn't or wouldn't source the right console.

i think you are wright and have managed to find some blanks to fill the holes so that i can move the window switches to where they belong. it will be good to tidy them up as they drive me mad at the minute lol

They did, but they were special order I think;

looks like that door card has been retrimmed, hence covering the hole / blank , but not sure why they wouldnt have covered the blanking point on the mirror adjustment hole?? assuming it had electric mirrors too? strange?

might have a couple of switch blanks kicking about in the garage you can have if i can find them, if not there not much pence on ebay , center console wouldnt be much either

Thanks for the help and the offer of blanks but my new ones turned up today  so now i just have to move my switches to where they belong and it should look much better.

Nope, you can see on the back that there has never been a hole in it

fair enough, still seems strange they would go to the bother of that and still leave a blank in for a non func manual mirror controller hole!!




your switches will look loads better in the right place, god knows why some one put them there??

You'll need to get the proper center console or try and adapt the console you have to make the switches fit..

I've only ever seen them fitted properly in a console, but if your Handy Manny I'm sure you can make them fit!!

Electric window Switches are a much smaller fitment than the standard switches.

If you get really stuck - I do have a window console for sale on the bay, came from a 5 door but will fit a 3 door...
