Power window to manual convervison

Postby 2Fast4vtec » Mon Aug 16, 2004 6:35 pm

Hey my power windows are stuffed and i don't want to re-wire it all. So, I want to change it to a manual setup. Can anyone tell me if this is possible and how I would do it.
Thanks.

hmm..might just be easier to find a car the same as yours with manual windows already and just swap them over ?..rather than probably having to change the window mechanism etc..

If you get a manual window regulator for the same model then it will bolt straight in. You may need the interior trim or modify yours.

I think that would be to much work etc. I just wanna take the unit out of the doors and put in the wind up from some other corolla.
