Got my Autowindow kit... who can fit it?

[Danbo]

As above my Autowindow Reflex kit has arrived. However I dont really fancy attempting to fit it myself.

Does anyone know anyone in Surrey who could do it and how much for?

Have a look at this guide and give it a go yourself... much greater sense of achievement that way

Follow Scotts guide, take your time, do all the checks and It will be easier than you think!!!

Read the guide, but not wanting to be overtly stupid, what the hell does it do??

If you're coming to GTi Spring Festival I'll give you a hand. It took me a couple of hours, but having done it once I think we could get that down to an hour and a half.

Cheers, Will

The AutoWindow module? It closes/opens the windows and folds/unfolds the mirrors from the remote keyfob.

EDIT: The AutoWindow "reflex" does the mirrors

Try here http://www.autowindow.com/! Scott who supplies them is a great bloke!!!

Nice features! Seems a bit daunting to fit though.

Nah, it's easy. The instructions that come with it are great! The unit has a built in tester thingamebob so you can tell at each step if you've done it correctly.

Piece of p155.

So how does it work with the two clicks to unlock all the doors etc?

I assume you get windows open/close, front/back & mirrors in/out?

 

[stpete]

There can be an issue with double press to unlock all doors, you can either leave one wire disconnected and only have roll up, press slowly or get dealer/vag com to turn off unlock feature! Not a biggie really!!! I love mine!!! looks flash as you lock walk away and mirrors fold and windows roll up!!!!

Might add it to my already long and expensive shopping list! Damn this website

You press unlock then lock and all the windows go up and the mirrors fold in. (if the windows are already up, then just the mirrors fold in - obviously).

Then just unlock, and your ears stick out, unlock unlock and your ears stick out and the windows roll down.

The chicks dig it the most.

It's a very tempting mod! Saves me having to remember to unfold my mirrors each day after work. You would have thought I'd leant by now, but nope.....

No, unfortunately you can't. There are ways of modifying the windows behaviour via a serial cable and some DOS based software, as somebody posted recently, but it's not the same as this and it's a bit of a fiddle.
