Power window question

[Vernal]

Not very technical, but is there a way to change from power windows to manual windows. I know the motor is in a different place than the crank of the manual ones. Other than the door panels what would you have to replace? Would you have to fabricate a place to mount the crank?

the internal parts for the power window need to come out and in goes the manual assembly.

[Vernal]

So I can just unplug everything and take them out, and then put in the manual window assembly. Is the manual assembly a direct bolt considering the doors are obviously the same, or no?

Yes the manual should slid right in...I had to swap doors and it was a manual but mine was auto...I was a pita to get in but it does fit...this is one of the reason my car is three colors \/

[Vernal]

Is there pre existing holes in the door to bolt the manual crank to or how is it mounted? I mean I would have to buy new doors right? I just tear out all of the power stuff and then bolt in the manual stuff right?

[martins_240sx]

No if you have a door it is the same as a manual or auto...The only thing you have to do is pull out the internals on the one you dont want and put in the internals on the one you do....Now put the proper door panel on or be getto and just cut a hole for the crank....

Does this count as a write up???

[Vernal]

Thats what im saying I just buy the manual crank and manual door panel and it bolts right in?

[martins_240sx]

yes you are correct.....as long as you have the manual assembly

[Vernal]

thanks.

thats funny i want to do the exact opposite. it sucks rolling windows especially when you need to roll down the passenger window

[Vernal]

Where do you live? Maybe we can trade stuff I'm guessing sacremento.
