Hello all
I am brand new to THIS forum, have been a Mopar guy my whole life, used to own a 1983 Chrysler Imperial (back in the day) but aside from the project that I've been working on for the last several years ( https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/SRT-8-Dodge-Mirada/183925705026531 )- I am not much of a J-body expert at all. BTW - please, no haters.. I know this project is not for everyone, but the owner is happy as a clam & that is all that matters to me.
I am in the process of converting this manual window, manual lock car over to all power so that I can use the Charger switches to control it & the key fob to lock/unlock it. The new car motors turn in a reverse direction so in order to use them, I would have to mount them on the outside (interior side) of the door to get proper orientation - a little intrusive, possibly not a big deal & maybe not out of the question because the Charger 6x9 mid bass door speaker will stick out about that far anyway & that portion of the door panel will have to be thicker anyway... however, I think it would be much nicer if I could just replace the manual window regulators with the factory power regulators & just wire the motors into the Charger system. The locks shouldn't be that big of a deal to convert - but if I can find all of the parts from the same source, I'd be interested in doing that instead.
if anyone has any ideas that would help I would appreciate it! Please post here or send me an email at shcc@aol.com
Thanks~!
John
