It was 6 years ago now, but I think I had the complete door looms out of a Sport, which had the leccy window wiring, leccy mirrors, speakers and central locking. I can't remember the wiring for the windows actually being in the car, so we had to make up our own loom. We just drilled through the plastic plugs in the doors, threaded the wires through the rubber tubing and connected the wires up in the door.

Make sure you wire them up properly though, as my one touch stopped working every time you turned off the car.

Thanks lol I didn't notice the date lol..but thanks :)

depends if u have the wiring through the door already. i think u will as its a 95, and they stopped in 96, i think.

then u just need a haynes manual and itll take u through it

You'll get a much better response if you actually put the problem/topic in the subject box, otherwise no one will bother looking.

As for Answer......its fiddly but do-able DIY. U need the loom + all the workings out of a corsa that did have electric windows. U shud get this from a scrappy.
