Hey, Well today (1/9/06) I am going to be picking up my 4th eclipse, I don't know what it is about them, but i just can't stay away from them. BUT anyway It's a 99 5-speed RS or GS (no badges), but it has crank windows, and manual door locks, and i was wondering if anyone has ever tried to put in power window/power door locks, in their eclipse? i like those features, and if it's pretty easy to swap over to that i'm gonna do it, but if i could get any information on that, it would be appreciated greatly! and i would just look for another eclipse with the features i want, but this one isa Really good deal. my previous eclipse have been a 98 RS, a 91 GSX, and an "00 GT, and they all had those features, and i've just gotten pretty used to having them, and enjoying them.

 

Well with it not having those features im just gonna guess that it is an RS. Just because it seems like it would be the base model then. For doing the power window and door lock conversions. The only way i think it would be possible is to finda donor car from a junk yard cuz i think your gonna need alot of stuff out of it. Ive never attempted it but i cant imagine the wiring being all that fun to deal with

 

ya its deffinately gonna be a pain in the *** if youve never done anything like that before. as for the parts, you can probably find them at a salvage yard like the engineer said, if not, you might have to go through a dealer to get them, which is gonna cost you an arm and a leg. o and todays date is 1/9/07 not 1/9/06

and dont feel alone about having crappy windows, mine are automatic and they take about 10x as long as a manual one would to roll up and down

 

Well, thanks guys for that, in helping me come to my senses, lol. i don't really need the windows, and door locks anyway, waste of money now that i think about it!

 

My Eclipse is a 2000 and has hand crank windows.
I've NEVER had a car with power windows, and dont want them.
Don like to replace regulators, window motors, and switches.
Just annoying.

 

crank windows have regulators too

 

I know this, but they dont seem to break as easliy as the power windows do.
The hand cranks gotta do SOMETHING after all
