Manual to power windows!, Workthread, step by step etc Options

Hey there!

Got a ST without power windows, and yeah, its really lame at these days. Its really embarassing to manually slide the windows down, so I have always been thinking of a conversion!

So this is the time, finally. I got my hands on some really nice JDM 93/94 celica doors, with everything. Power windows, power locks, power folding mirrors etc. So I'll got everything I need now, so its basicly to just swap the old ones into these!

But I'll got a European ST, which is LHD. The doors came from a RHD JDM. So its some tweaking with wires.

Basicly I have to do this:

1. Unplug the harnesses from the JDM doors
2. Swith harnesses from side to side (left side goes to right side, and vice versa)
3. Switch panels the same way
4. Switch locks from the original car
5. Unhatch the original doors
6. Mount the new doors
7. Plug in the harness to the car

And this is without ANY problems or trouble. I dont expect it to be as easy as the list, though.

Thank you! I will try to post up everything, to make it easier for other people to do the same mod.

The platic foils is a nasty work indeed. But Im kinda used to them now, so I think I'll got the right technique now. But its really hard to not damage them, since the plastic strech alot when you pull it off.

Okay, the tweeter thing is problably nothing if others have the same problem. The thing that worried me though, was the "reset" on the fuel gauge. Maybe I pulled a plug which was to it, I dont know. But I thought that those fuel cables were in the middle of the car? (Through the middle console and so on)



I have now marked every cable with numbers, and I think the harness is ready to be plugged in to the doors and the car. I must wait for the doors to be repaired (ETA 1 week), so in the meantime I need help with the power locks. Do someone know what each of the cables to the power locks do?

1. WHITE/BLACK - This is ground
2. WHT/BLACK - This is also ground
3. BLUE/BLACK
4. BLUE
5. GREEN
6. BLUE/RED
