Has anyone converted their manual windows to power? I have seen conversion kits available for other vehicles, does anyone know if there is one for the RX-7? If I just hit the junk yard, are there any parts besides the motors and switches that I should obtain? Anyone have the parts in a parts car they want to sell?



Thanks.

I think all you need are the motors, switches, and new door panel that doesn't have the window crank hole. The car comes wired and ready to have the motors plugged in. I was thinking of doing this mod as well, but haven't found a junkyard car with power windows or door locks.
