one final thing, when I lock my doors my windows all go up by them selves as part of an aftermarket mod I did.  If anyone is interested all XRs can be done easily by me or most accessory installers/auto electricians

As long as the dog isn't hanging out the window :lol:

WRX's had auto close driver's windows that were a potential child trap, ie (like the XR6 auto open) they closed all the way when the button was touched once.

The windows will work for 1 hour after taking the key out the ignition

I think your wrong there bud ...it's actually 10mins :spoton:

According to page 37 of the manual, it's 1 hour. I was wrong with the 1 minute when the doors are opened though, that's only 40 seconds.

Heres another quirk.

As some have probably noticed, if the window "disable" switch is on (to stop the kids from playing for example) and you try to wind a window up from the Drivers control's and your kid presses the rear window switch to down, the window stops. Frustrating as hell when you are trying to close 'em....

Today with 2 kids in the rear, I discovered that with the window disable switch on, if I try to wind either rear window up and BOTH kids press their switch to down, the window opposite to the one I am trying to raise lowers!

Is my system faulty or is the logic for the windows dumb?

sorry to take so long to reply. The window raiser unit is available at heaps of places or I can sell them to you. I am in melb, but can send them anywhere. As far as installing them I dont recomend it for the inexperienced, ubt it is not all that difficult, just a lot of wires to sort out.

The entire installation is in the door except one power wire on some cars(non-ghisa I think). This wire I run inside the original plug to a power source which is fused & you will not see.

Am happy to help anyone who want to try it themselves but my help is limited to what I can do on here or over the phone.

I know I found it difficult the first time I did one, but have done dozens of them in recent years.

As far as cost goes I have an idea-

would normally charge $150-$170 to do the job, I was thinking around $130 & a $20 donation to the site per installation?

I should also add some notes on how they work.

when doors are locker, either by key or remote & the accessory position is not on, the windows will one at a time close. The go up for a timed period or until a rise in current draw occurs. So if a kids head is stuck inthere, it will trip out that window & go onto the next one. same thing happens when the top is reached to stop overloading motors.

if this occurs, locking doors again will close the offending window.
