What silicon spray did you use for the windows? How did you do it without getting that stuff on the window itself?
I replaced my old, original, channels when I had the door card off. I took the window out too bc the bottom metal channel attached to the regulator had come off both rear doors so the windows weren’t working at all (this was a recent issue w/ the one). Both rear windows are now operating like a new vehicle and my dogs appreciate it greatly. One caution: if removing your windows be VERY careful with the divider bw the main and fixed windows when putting it back together if you have tint. It WILL scratch your tint if you’re not very careful (and might even if you are). Ask me how I know!
 
Excited to get these installed.

Did you post this and I missed it?

A bunch of people have asked for a wiring diagram so I'll make one in the next couple days and post on the site + here

Not yet. I'm lagging. Just busy :(
But it is on my list! Hope to have something out this week
this is what i put together during the video to use when I wired them:

window mod wiring:

◦ red on board goes to blue tying it in both sides. your power.
◦ white on board to red/yellow switch side
◦ blue on board to green/yellow switch side
◦ green on board to red/yellow on connector side
◦ yellow on board goes to green/yellow on connector side

Is this correct?
Just checking, as it's what I got from the video as well. Don't wanna hurt em on accident!

Thank you.
 
Hi all - here is a basic wiring diagram. Will upload to the site as well.

Made a splice harness. I assumed the unlisted green-blue and red-blue were just straight pass throughs.
Still need to figure out a good ground spot

awesome! Planning to make a few of these available as well soon.
 
Splice harness worked great. Grounded to a little 6mm bolt on the door panel. I added some protective sheathing to the ground wire since it’s floating around sheet metal edges. So far so good. Two more doors to go.
 
All 3 units crimped in place / installed with minimal issues. They work GREAT!

(Don't take apart a back a row window switch to fit it through the door card after crimping, at sunset, in the yard/dirt. You'll be sifting yard dirt in the dark with a headlamp to find the guts of the switch that boinged everywhere to repair the switch to get the window up before it rains...
Still didn't find 1 part, I think the chickens got it, had to raid parts from a switch doctor switch.)

Other than that, I found a great improvement on window speed with these, coupled with new window runs. Speed is improved from the individual doors AND from the master switch on the drivers door.

I had a chill afternoon in crimping mode with music playing in the background. I had fun.

(The wire harness "plug and play" option would be worth it, in my post crimping opinion. Will make life much easier for any future door card removal for service.)

Very pleased.
Thank you for putting energy into a solution like this!

Awesome to hear!
I agree - will get a plug and play option out in the next few weeks. Small batch to start to gauge interest.

I originally designed this for myself and my vehicle had the previous owner's hacky wiring job in there, so true plug and play was never an option for me and I hadn't thought of it until you all suggested it! Great call-out
