Giving power windows a go on my Coupe.

Tested the geometry with the existing door frames, and with the third (side impact) rail, the glass is unable to slide inside, outside or, (obviously) between the top and bottom rails, as had been done in the US.

Have started on a new door frame, with an increased distance between the horizontal rails and further to the pics attached, have moved the vertical members to the outside of the frame to increase clearance of the glass and the mechanism.

Am looking at a Suzuki Virtara window regulator, which has better packaging geometry than most hotrod flat window kits.

Interested in any thoughts or advice from someone whos conquered this mountain before me..

Cheers

Chris
