Auto window kit...

[spenser21]

if you've ever had manual windows you know it sucks to lay down across the bench seat to get the passenger side. I found this kit on amazon and was wondering what you think and or what you've done to yours. thanks

With the availability of power doors everywhere, there is no better way than to use factory power door hardware and then upgrade the harness for the auto down and/or up option. That kit while I don't use such things looks about as stout as my sons plastic Tonka truck. Those kits are cheap for a reason....I'd stay away from it and I'm not saying that just because I build auto up/down harnesses but because I'd never suggest a junk kit. High quality stuff just isn't cheap but theres no sense in settling for mediocrity either.

Buddy of mine put that same kit in his 55 Chevy pick up, lasted 2 months. Like @gmachinz said you can find power windows out of a salvage yard for your truck, let him build you a harness, and you'll be better off in the long run. I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for.

that's why I ask. definitely looked like a cheap kit so I wasn't sure what everyone else was running. so thank you for saving me! once I get that far what am Im looking at for price on your harness?
