They were only available on the very first mx-3's - I think the ones produced in 91... I could be mistaken though

Since your car already has too many knobs and switches - why not use another power mirror switch and wire it to control the windows (MacGyver Bond style) - then you can get the door panel from a non power window mx3 to cover up the big hole......

well I probably wouldn't do that but what I was thinking about was getting a RHD door panel with another master window switch so my passengers have the same options I do and can control both windows - lol 8)
