heya guys,

if you were converting an a ek9 with manual windows to have electric windows how much work is entailed. simple things like door cards etc dont bother me but im just wondering how much wiring is installed as standard etc? if any?

thanks

It's a 4 to 6 hrs of work not a big deal for something like this the hardest part is the regulators! Finding the Wire Harness will be a bit hard if you don't buy a new 1! I bought a new 1 but the rest I got from the wreckers in my area! Good deal too! 200.00cnd for everything including the price of a new harness! So it's well worth it!
 
im assuing CND is canadian dollars.
what exactly do you mean by the regulators? and why is it the difficult part? excuse my ignorance. :D

not sure on price over here but i have emailed a major jap scrap place and asked them for a price on the lot including door cards etc. so will let you guys know the results price wise
 
Yes CND is canadian dollar! Regulators are circled in the pic provided! Once you take your door panels off you'll understand what I mean by Difficult!! Check the link in post no.2 it's well detailed of what is involved in doing this some people think it's not worth it but believe it is!!!

any chance you can repost a link to that pic u posted up mate..of the regulators and harness etc etc :D

when you fit the harness where do you take a power feed from?? is there a plug on the harness to go to the fuse box etc or something??
 
would it be any easier to get an ex door and throw it on? and how mutch more expensive would it be?
