Nova is running some boring Corsa Sport rims that spin up easily

OK Benn, thanks for letting me know

Cheers for the feedback all!

Electric windows into a Corsa that doesn't have them = total nightmare when you have never done it before

I had them fitted in mine on Saturday and it took us about 4 hours

Serious ballache

Could do it alot quicker now we've done it once.

take doorcards and pockets etc. off.

take off white plastic sheet thats stuck to the inner skin of the door.

disconnect wires going into door.

drill rivets out of the existing winder mechanism.

take winder mechanism off runners and remove from door.

remove wiring and put new wiring in.

undo the vertical and horizontal runners and remove.

rivet electric motor into place.

arse around for ages trying to get all the runners on again without knocking the others off and put the horizontal and vertical runners back on.

connect all wires up and put back together etc.

hard to write a guide without doing pictures to show which bits I mean to disconnect and remove from the door. Prob missed some bits

yeah I had the wires up until the car side of the door so only needed to buy some electric window door looms.

Would not like to have to chase new wires all the way back through the car
