#104313, "Changing from manual to auto windows/mirrors/locks"


          

Ok, So I just brought home my first DSM today. Yes I offically converted... The problem is the car needs lots of TLC. It is a RS..So the manual windows/locks/mirrors are out. But I'm not sure how to wire auto into a manual set up... Any help would be greatly appriecated. Thanks!

I have done this and so has many others.

Basically, everything is plug and play. You need the regulator, lock mechanism, mirrors, switches, relays, and harnesses.

You install everything and plug in the harness and relays.

The car is already wired for everything, just not in the doors.

My friend just did this he pulled power doors from a GS, only thing you need is the relays my buddy forgot to pull them and luckily I had some extras.

Find a parts car pull the doors and the relays from under the dash (On the drivers side under the steering wheel tucked under.

Make sure to get the proper interior panels as well. Having power doors that you can't control because you forgot to swap to the proper panels is a major annoyance.

BTW this ranks as one of the best mods I've done to the RS. On a daily basis, I probably get more satisfaction out of it than the turbo or my interior. I hated cranking down that passenger window

I guess I lucked out when I got mine because I already had power locks and windows. I'll have to look under the dash though because I haven't been able to find the connections for the power mirrors.

Talons had no additional dash wiring for the power doors if yours was a manual door car.

The eclipses are all equipped with the dash wiring for windows, locks, and mirrors.

All you need is the equipment in the door and the relays/switch for the dash.

I have converted 2 cars so far.
