Ok it seems like this must have been covered but I cant find it in a search so sorry here we go again, does anyone know if we can make auto windows? I was thinking putting in the motor and mounting a switch somewhere... what you all think?

I've done it in my car using a Spal kit from eBay, and it works great.
 The windows roll up and down pretty quickly and quietly, and installation wasn't too hard at all. In the image below, you can see how I mounted the motor.

My switches are actually in my middle console, as shown in the photo below. Also, I did install power door locks on my car. I may do a how-to on the installation when I've got some time on my hands.

Thanks for the comments.
I did do it all myself, and the SPAL Deluxe power window kit was $130 I believe.

Yep, it's out right now. I plan on relocating it to my glove box when I've got the car back.
