power windows?

guamcivic2k1 · 03-20-2003

ok..im either gonna do a cluster swap(i have a dx) or power windows...

my question is- should i go aftermarket for my power windows, or should i just try to get it off another 7th gen? i have a sedan by the way....

has anybody done power windows on their dx?

i was going to, i did my power locks after market (DEI, works with my alarm), but i was considering going OEM for the windows. Then again, i dont really mind rolling down my windows, so im probably just gonna get a sun roof instead. I dunno. I still thinking.

yeah i got power locks aftermarket also...the only aftermarket powerwindows i've heard that are good is autoloc....are they any good? i dont mind rolling the windows also, but i have a 4door..

how much would a sunroof cost you?

better off going with the oem windows, i have personally had problems with a couple of different brands of aftermarket powerwindows for my truck, better safe that sorry,

chrisman, what aftermarket power windows did you try?

where can i get oem power windows?

ive installed my own power windows in my own car and have had zero problems with it, i dont even have "power window switches" in there, they work and have always worked fantastically, no issues after 6 months, my friends still tell me they go faster than any stock car they have ever seen.

and ive always trusted autoloc for al my powerwindow/doorpop/funt toy accessories

aftermarket is fine.in fact, better, because you will be left with a hole in your door if you get the oem windows, which will cost you $$$$ at teh dealership. far more than autoloc. at least teh aftermarket windows come with nubs so you can cover it up!

whitrabbit how much did your cost and which kit did you get

I had a couple kits from JC WHITNEY i dont remember the exact name brand, but all three were crap, they were loud, stuck and vibrated my doors like crap..........just my opinions, id personally wait until someone wrecks, or whatnot.....heaven forbid im the one to wreck though (knock on wood)

wait till a car that has the same int as you and buy all youll need!

i got kits from my loacl audioshop, company discount for working there

autoloc makes a fine set as well.

IMO if you can get them at a junkyard, that would be best, but otherwise, just go with aftermarket.

another Guu fan! never thought that show would get around, thats for sure!

but if your wiring isnt already in there, can you imagine how much of a pain that would be to install!
