kirk28 Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Ok, i have the regulators out of a cressida (gx60) for my wagon with windy fuckers (no like the windy, yes windy spelt the same as WINDy). It is a bolt up affair, which is easy peasy, i have also used the donor car's central locking motors (keyless alarm coming)-they bolt up nice, and have factory reliability versus the taiwan shit motors and crap you have to mount yourself.. Here's the question for anyone electrically minded (im handicapped when it comes to wiring anything).. I don't want to use the donor car's power switches, as it would mean changing over the door cards, which means the introduction of a bulky arm rest that the switches are fitted into. Also my door cards are mint, and match the seats, and im big on originality. I found some 'flush fit' switches outta a 1988 Izusu Bighorn, they bolt to the door and mount straight onto the door cards---so will look legit and i keep my door cards. Now if i mount all regulators, motors etc, the auto elecy would just need to run wiring to all four door motors, and then sus out the 4 wires that come from each swtich to the corresponding -up/down wire on the motor loom for each window...well that is my logic anyway... So, anyone know if i am correct in my assumptions? i can't be assed ringin the sparkies cos they always say the same thing--'bring it in" and the car isn't mobile atm but i wana know before i start reassembling anything on the fucker. So roughly is it a simple job for an on to it auto sparky? and roughly how long do you think it would take them? to help things i have a wiring diagram for the cress, and have the original cress power window swtiches as well.. Ok now give me some answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 get the plugs for the motors, and the bighorn switches to make it easy. aside form that, it should be a piece of piss..... for the window anyway.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirk28 Posted December 23, 2006 Author Share Posted December 23, 2006 cool cheers, i have the bighorn switches, so do you mean get the plug that comes off the bighorn motor as well? cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 just the plug off the switch itself, and a bit of the wirign to splice into. same for the mirrors and mirror switch you're gonna use I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzzie Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 In other words. Take the whole switch and wiring loom from the drivers door righ to the pillar. That gives you switch, and plug and enough wire to play with as whatever electrician might find necessary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
