Hello Crew, Richster here and i'm trying to source a power window switch and a motor for my 83 TA, by the time the window moves the season has changed, and it is getting worse! Any leads would be very helpful!
Thanks!

Have you tried checking your connections at the switch, motor, and ground? Those things draw a lot and I've heard of picking up speed by cleaning things up and changing the wire to a heavier gauge.

Hey Blue89, thanks dude i have not! but it's worth a look. I am a serious rookie at this stuff! i find it easier to pay LOL any tips on taking off the door panel? I have not taken anything off such as that, the switch i can get to i have lifted the console no big deal on that. Any pointers/tips are appreciated, and hey i pay in beer, and beef, i have a freezer full of the best beef you'll ever have! hand feed and raised in Hillsboro private farm no commercial crap or steroids! LOL...lets eat!

I hear a BBQ coming. Wink

Taking the door panel off isn't too hard. There are a couple of screws for the arm rest, and a one for the door handle, then it pops off. It is really easy, once you have seen it done, or done it once. Its been a while, so I don't recall of any of them are need Torx bits or not. But, if you don't have a torx set, have them, is a good thing to have with our cars.

Sounds fairly straight forward, and i have to tell you i will grill 7/24 365! i have a monster stainless commercial grill that i roll out under the eves and fire it up! so seeing as you have the kill beer and i have the beef, every cut too...I think we should do this! I'll bring some steaks to brew day and you can try it out!
Thanks for the tips!
