Operation Interior Makeover Begins!
Thursday, February 19, 2009 1:50 PM
So i order the SPAL power windows and lock kits, 74 led for the HVAC, New fabric for the seats new uphostery hasn't been decided yet but since everything is finally here I'll start the tear down... The goal is to take my now currently Gray interior and make it all black with power everything! I'll order a black cat gauge next week to match...

oh yea the box in the back, Imma try the Fender stripe look (thanks Jm Graphic) a single stripe per side, i'll have to see if i like want to be different, I'll keep anyone who is interested post on the project.

Updates! i got the power locks in no problem... The work awesome... the fender stripes are on.... Looks ok, i guess dare to different as they say.

The power windows are a bitch, Trying to figure out where to mount them, one thing the brackets they give you with the tiny ass screws do not work, I'm going to have to come up with some work around, not only that i attempted to wire them to a stock switch i got from the junker and that not working either, i'm at a stand still with these damn things still i figure something out. i'll up load pics later.

why didnt you just just buy a new regulator that includes the lift motor from a car that had factory installed power windows. I know at autozone they are 180 per side for a two door sunfire, which is a regulator and the motor. Then you could just wire it up yourself! Those universal kits are too much to mess around with and most of the time you cant even get them to work.

Ok FINALLY finished! I had trouble with the POS SPAL brackets the designer of those damn things need to be smacked, But zip ties are my friend and it helped alot to mount the power window motors very securely.. some pics..


the tiny ass screws won't go through the bracket the hole on the motor mount you screw it on and then touch the damn thing and it falls off


But like i said zip ties are full of win


all mounted up


Factory stock switch from the junker...wired up


In place..


This project was a pain but so well worth it, The driver side even has auto down!
so power locks and windows are great and so it the SPAL Kits.

oh yea a the install of the fender stripes for @!#$z and Giggles...



If you and cheap and decent way to install power windows and locks go spal...

its kinda noisey but its tolerable since i always had to crank at first...

that's pretty awesome!
I will have to pick up some spal parts this summer,
because that price is too damn good.

i had a cheaper version of that style of power window kit. it had a plastic track that the nylon coated cable ran in. the track eventually broke and i had no more power windows. i just ended up going to a junk yard and getting the motors, regulators and switches from an 03 sunfire and bought different colored wires from home depot and wired it all up. it's a little bit more of a project, ended up costing me just over 200 (the parts had to be ordered from another yard) but i'm very happy having it all stock. plus, it eliminates the crank so you don't have something still sticking through your door panel that can catch on ur pants, or those of ur passengers. either way, good luck with the rest of the installs.

oh, and please stop using scotch clips for your wiring. those things kill me.
