Yeah, a couple of little problems with both installs.
The Electric life window kits are installed and with the Hotronic switches work, however, it looks like I will have to make some adjustments to the window in order to seal correctly against the weatherstripping. A small gap had appeared at the corner in the rear and once fully lowered the trim sits just above the door edge. I'm pretty sure it went lower before I swapped in the new parts. I guess the slight changes are due to the difference in size of the mounting hardware. The original bolts were 5/16 the new hardware is metric and slightly smaller, added up over all the bolts it could change the position enough to cause the problem.
Has anybody see this before and how did you correct it?
I also had a fuse blow when I rolled down one of the windows, it popped after the window reached the bottom of its travel. I may have held the switch in the down position after the window stopped and I guess this could have caused the fure to pop. Maybe using an auto resetting circuit breaker for the windows might be a good thing to do.
The locks also work, well almost, I installed this kit http://www.electric-life.com/productdetails.asp?cid=869&rp=&yp=159.445 and if I close and latch the doors the remote will not lock the doors. If I press the unlock button they will lock, now with the doors locked if I press the unlock button I find the doors unlock for a second or so then relock. I've tried a few times adjusting the actuator rods per instructions without change.
Has anybody who has done this install been down this road and offer any tips?
