| power doors and windows
hello everyone. had a question about power window and lock integration on my 92 EG hatchback. i was wondering if i bought a universal motor and track system could it be wired up somehow to oem switches and work? currently i have a compustar alarm system and was considering on upgrading to alarm and remote start but could the actuator be wired somehow to OEM lock/unlock as well as lock when the engine is running for a minute? (hopefully that makes sense.lol).
i have not seen a power window/lock conversion for a while now but when i do they are super expensive so was looking for a cheaper but OEM looking alternative. any insight would be great.thanks.

Adapting power windows into your car is a time consuming project (expect 2-3 hours per door). The locks are about 45 minutes per door. They can both be controlled through your Compustar easily.

you can get an actuator for around $15. As for windows, you would be looking into a dei 530t window module. All will work off of firstech equipment
