Auto Window Hack

Post by mikenmel08 »

Just thought I would share this incase people dont know about it already.....If you replace your drivers window switch with this one it will give you Auto Up and Down on your 2 front windows.... It is a direct replacement even though it says it's for a different car it does work , I've already done it....

I'm adding heated mirrors to my Baja, I wonder if this switch interferes with that, or precludes you using them? The button for heated mirrors goes in that blank spot immediately in front of the window switches on the driver side.

It should not interfere with the mirror switch it's pretty much the same exact shape as the original window switch, but I can't say for certain because I don't have a mirror switch to try it. That is going to be my next project though. I think I need to run wires though i don't think the '03 has anything for heated mirrors.

The section you are referring to is not part of the window switch....That is part of the mirror switch which is a different assembly

I just bought this switch and received the single-auto version, even though the dual-auto was pictured in the Amazon listing. Contacted SwitchDoctor and they said they don't stock the dual-auto model anymore, gave me a refund without asking me to ship the part back.

Must be a recent change, since Amazon and Walmart listings still show dual-auto. Links to this part on switchdoctor.net 404 now.

Anyone know a supplier other than SwitchDoctor?
