Don't post in more than 1 forum, the moderators don't like it...<p>Anyhow, if I understand what you are trying to say, you bought a power window switch for the drivers side, but no wires. What you should really look into doing is going through the Sell/Trade Forum and see if people are parting out their cars. If they are, see if they have the drivers side power window switch. I really don't recommend trying to splice wires and create your own connectors for the power windows, because it is more trouble than it is worth in the end... :shrug:

nono..they're manual windows. what happened was the black plastic casing with the white circle that holds the coiled up metal in it exploded. we've got like 3 of them. 2 are apart and 1 is for the other side so it's backwards and won't work if installed. not to mention the cable/wires are all kinked and messed up.
