    I have a love-hate relationship with electric windows - I love the convenience and the ability to open any window I want from the drivers seat. I hate the fact on some cars the windows don't work with the ignition switched off. I love the speed with which the windows open and close when having to use access cards etc when its raining. I hate the fact that if your electric windows break you're totally screwed until you repair them. I don't think a manual window winder has ever malfunctioned in the 4.5 billion year history of the planet.

      +Simon Coles I break manual handles all the time because I'm too damn tall and I have to wind them in some bunk way that snaps them in half. At least if they are cheap plastic. I honestly carry spares when I have a car that has them, you are not wrong by the way I'm a special case.

      @danssmith387 9 років тому +9

      I agree with you and another thing is for some reason if you drive into a lake or a river u have to smash out the window but if u have the old school wind up windows u can simply stay calm and roll the window down if you can't open the door with the water pressure anyways I'm going to be doing this mod to my truck soon because I don't plan on driving my lifted beautiful pickup truck into water any time soon haha

    I had a friend install mine 10 years ago. I was just in Hilo Hawaii the wettest place on earth when the belt on my old after market PW finally broke after too many bumps off roading. I removed the door panel in a car park....got the window to stay up manually .It was pouring rain......Thankfully I have been paying attention to how things work.I'm ordering this set tomorrow. Shouldn't be hard since I already have PW installed.Just swap it all out.The new ones look way more solid .Thanks guys !!!!

    I was lucky upgrading my old Lancer, got the parts of another car that came with power windows and got matching door cards and switches so it looks like the car always had power windows. Even got them wired so they work with ACC on. Also got some power mirrors off the same car and chucked them on, makes life a lot easier!

  • @Immashift
    @Immashift 5 років тому

    I know this is old, but as an aside:
    I have an old ranger with what used to be manual windows. I put this in, but I also wanted my alarm (Viper 2way remote) to be able to close windows when locking the car or by a button on the remote.
    So I wired this right onto the battery, then relayed it so that it only gets power either when the ignition is on at least in accessory, or when I lock the car or press an aux button on the remote, it fires a relay that runs the motor up or down for five seconds which is more than enough time to open or close the windows. Also diodes in between to stop the relays backfeeding and doing weird stuff.
    I'm keeping that truck as my utility vehicle until it falls apart, so I've been loading it with TONS of convenience features. Heated seats, heated steering wheel, power seats, etc. It's proving lots of fun installing all the toys.

    At 8:30, a lot of cars are like that. The power widows are connected to the battery which makes it easy for people to use a wire hanger and push the button, giving them access to your car. I've had experience with this when people locked their keys in the car. Some cars, just push the button. This is also true for the unlock buttons.

    Do not use silicon spray as they intended in this video. I did and I regretted this thing to hell. This silicon so called lubricant will dry out and create so much friction, that window would barely move. It creates unnecessarily load on motor and my motor eventually died in a year or so. I had to use WD Penrtrator Oil to clean up that dried silicon "lubricant". Other than that, this video helped me to convert window to power one very easy. Thanks a ton!

    If the car has the option to have power windows already installed at the factory, I imagine the ideal way to do this would be to buy the original factory mechanisms and they SHOULD just bolt on (the door itself may be different depending on whether or not it has a power window though)...it might even be cheaper getting them second hand. That's what I did when I electrified the rear windows on mine :D

    window winder can also be removed with a thin rag! just get it to snag the clip. Works everytime.....with some practice

    I totally forgot this existed until 2 weeks ago, so I ordered a set, now my missus' 68 volkswagen beetle has power windows and central locking. The original window winder is used as the switch ;) looks completely stock :D

      How did you use the winder as a switch?

    • @Staffii1
      @Staffii1 9 років тому

      I used a dremmel to make a slot n the back side of the winder and used a toggle switch, winder down window down, winder up, window up.

    • @PommyDownUnder98
      @PommyDownUnder98 9 років тому

      Did it have a limiter so you could only push/wind it so far or something?

    • @Staffii1
      @Staffii1 9 років тому

      If you're asking about the system itself, the electric window kit automatically stops winding once it hits a certain resistance.
      If you're asking about the switch, because the winder actually technically pivots off of the switch toggle, it will only go as far as the switch toggle.
      Believe it or not, it's actually really easy, but it does take time and thought.

    • @Staffii1
      @Staffii1 9 років тому

      You won't break a toggle switch by putting pressure on it, they're actually unbelievably hard to break. I ordered 3 on purpose to see how breakable they were, and I still now have the third switch that I wasn't able to break, got them off ebay, just cheap ones.

    that kit is very good and pretty easy to install aslong as u know what ur doing, im doin it now and its so simple, hardest part is finding how to mount it, wiring is way simpler than you would think

    I used to have this shitty car with front electric windows, the passenger side stopped working so I converted it to a manual wind up window regulator. It also had a fist size hole in the wing that I covered with layers of brown tape and then painted the tape to match the car body. One of the best I have had.

  • @etch250

    Best thing to do it remove all the old grease from the passenger window mechanism and re lubricate it. The passenger window being used less will usually run slower without new grease.

    you dont need it for a drag car however if your ever gonna go to a track or even a canyon road or even just screwing around on the street its worth it to have so get a limited slip differential

  • @georgetempest2469

    I love watching your videos guys! I had one of the first high-torque window motors in the 80's but, they were external. You had to take of the hand winder and then fit this sandwich box onto the door to make the whole thing electric :oD

  • @mrjurun
    @mrjurun 11 років тому

    You are aware that you can use a flat head screwdriver and push down on the same clip and it pushes the locking portion out of the way and you can pull the window winder lever off.

    It's a reflection in the window but at 7:35 when marty puts the window back up I thought there was a giant scratch on the right side near the door frame lol

    i drive a 2005 Chevy 2500HD. i have to lay down to reach the passenger side window regulator. the conversion is almost essential for my ntruck. also power door locks are in the works for the same reason.

      Josue Garcia No, I do get the joke. But that's stupid how an expensive super car would have manual windows.

    Cool, nice video but where can I get a kit like that. I like how the little electric motor is the one scrolling down and up the manual windows and also the added on aftermarket buttons on it. Goodbye for the handle.

    I went for the second time to see a used car for sale because I was keen on buying this one. However, the wind up manual windows were converted to power. They worked three days ago, all of them. Then tonight, none of them were working, so they tried the fuses, that worked for three of the windows but one of the windows, there is apparently a short in the wiring as pushing the button on the main control on the drivers side door, blew the fuse for the passenger window. So now I am not going to buy the car thinking that this may be a perpetual problem in the future. I would have been really happy if they just left well enough alone, I'd be happy with manual windows. They said they would fix it. But now i am not sure.
