Just a thought, it's kinda cheesy, but I wouldn't mind having all windows go auto down and auto up.

Would this work?

Good question & a good idea, but just an added question, will they work for all of the switches?? that would be so nice. Damn, I'm lazy.

:twisted:

Heh, but at least we're being creative about being lazy.

Well, from what I can tell, Toyota is rather lazy themselves in giving Lexus the same switches for their cars as your run of the mill Toyota. I'm assuming that you could just get the switches and then it woulbe a matter of plug and play.

I'd be curious to see if anyone pulls this off. Post Cost/method if you do!

Another way is to get remote windows with an alarm install.

I've had remote windows on my last two vehicles (95 Probe GT, 2002 frontier cc/lb) and it worked on both.

When you get your alarm installed, tell them you want remote window modules installed too (you'll need two of them). They run anywhere from $40-$60 a set, usually the price is $60 per pair of windows, installed.

When done you'll be able to roll your windows down remotely (crack them or all the way down) and, when you arm the alarm (or remote start your vehicle) the windows will go up (if they have been down for more then 30 seconds).

To bring this on topic, it gives the drivers door one touch up, and down, control for all windows.
