For smooth you will have to recover your door panels to hide the hole where the gear pushed through for the handle. No kit will make it absoleutly smooth with out extra work. If you recover your panels then all you have to do is not fill in the hole in the back part, shim the gear mechanism and you will be golden. Markydoo's looks like this. I have my switches in the center console. I like it that way, but I do have switch pods for anyone wanting to mount the switches in the door.

If you notice the door metal you will see it has its own protrusions. The installed kit does not exceed the doors natural set up by more thatn a couple of 1/32".

I get it, you need pics (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Great job (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif)

Only 15 years ago I asked about these kits and people said that it couldn't be done.

ps. Now you need to work on some power door locks.

Power door locks are cheap and easy. I am not gonna do these on this car as I do not usually unlock my doors while I am driving (but do wish to opperate my windows). If I didn't have the power mirrors and windows I would probably do it, but I have too many wires (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Engman,
Thanks for the complement. I am looking for suppliers currently, any leads would be greatly appreciated. I would like to sell a whole kit for no more than $100 including switches, instructions, mounting hardware, and most of the wiring. Some of the kits out there are crazy expensive with the switches costing upwards of $30 alone. The cost will depend on how much I can get them for and what type. If it is gonna be SPAL then it will be $100 because they are not the least expensive. If it is gonna be the brand and type I already have then it will be around $75 I hope. Time will tell.
I'll definetly see you at Hershey (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Are you going to start selling these? And if so, how much?

How long till you start selling them?

Who knows when I will be able to start. I have my feelers out to some vendors. I have sold the other kit that I currently have. Mainly it is price that I am working on. I wont sell it if you can get it for the same price somewhere else. The instructions will remain here with me answering questions for free. I will eventually post some wiring diagrams as well so the DIYers can install any kit they want and do not have to go to me.

Oh ya, I may also sell a new fuse block kit to those customers that wish to have an extra designated position for the windows. I'll have to see. I am not gonna sell the blocks separate as there are already two vendors doing them and they are good quality at an affordable price.

.......stay tuned for more innovations! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Alright folks,
I have a line on 4 kits for $70+ shipping. Is this a resonable price for ya'll? If anyone wants to order one of these I will take the first 4 emails and put the rest on a list if I can get more.

I am looking for feed back as to what price is best and how many people are interested.

I got ya, man. Yer #3.


Still one left for a lucky person (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I am suprised at how fast these sold (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

I hope to sell the next one by tomarrow when the East coast awakens from its slumber. I am actually still working the guy to see if I can get a better deal. I would like to end up with a final price shipped for $75...lets see.

Now watch the dancing monkey (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/monkeydance.gif)
