Ok so my drivers side window switch died. I opened it up and tried to clean it. Massive mistake, I un-clipped the switch mechanism and oh my god, wtf is this. I cannot ever get this back together again, it's full of little ball bearings, springs etc.
So I bought some toggle switches from an electronics store. Would it be possible for me to wire these in and solve the window switch issue? Any ideas how? For some reason I can't short a couple wires and make the windows go down, I don't want to hack the loom if this won't work.

Re: Aftermarket Toggle / Rocker Switch for Power Windows
It'll work, it's the same thing as when I used a passenger switch on the drivers side. I had a diagram but my host is down for that is a double-pole-double throw-switch, and one that can handle a decent amount of current.

This?

I bought two 6 pin rocker switches, they are wider but look almost stock. Looks close to this.

Re: Aftermarket Toggle / Rocker Switch for Power Windows
Someone was just advertising a drivers door switch. Just know that 92-93 uses a different set up than 94 (I think) to 97. There is a write up here on how to jump it so it works with the 92-93. Is that diagram for 92-93?

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

I'm avoiding the stock switch, they're s--- and not worth replacing.
I've got a 95 and I'm in Australia (RHD) so aftermarket is the best bet for me.
