Hello,

I need to replace 2 rear window switches. Does anyone know if the switches from the previous generation(4th gen) maxima/i30 will fit the 2000 i30(5th gen)

The 4th gen switches are much cheaper on eBay.

Also I might just buy the master switch and remove the switches from it and plug in them into rear switches. That way I will have 2 extra switches just in case something happens to any of the other two ones/or resell the excess ones back on eBay.

Thanks

The master switch has a completely different connection from the other switches.Master at left, passenger at right.

The connections also don't match the 4th gen, unfortunately (and the 4th gen doesn't support both front windows as auto one-touch like 5th gen).

Thank you so much for such a clear reply, your answer amazed me

One last thing I wanna make sure: Since I need them only for the rear part I don't need the auto one-touch feature. If you take the rear part of the 4th gen(not master switch like in your picture) will it still not fit the rear of the 5th gen?
