Im wanting to install power window kit in my 69 el camino & put the switches on my B&M floor shifter so my door panels stay OEM. Have any of you guys installed power window before? if so what brand? & what about the ebay stuff is it good, reliable?

You could use the fake window crank switches, but why> I have seen some plstic plugs used. New door panels is best. here is the window crank switch.

The factory P/W switches will cover the factory holes in your door panels. You have to make a square hole out of your round one.

Well I want to keep the OEM Look so i would still like to have the window cranks on the door panels. The fake window crank switches wont work because i want to be able to control both windows that is why i wanted to put the switches on the plastic of my B&M. Im looking for something simple just two switches.

I have the Electric Life streetrod kit in my 59 Elky
Recently installed the Electric Life regulator/motor bolt in for the 66 Elky.
Piece of cake installing the regulators-----fishing the wires thru the doors may cause a headache.
I am putting a console in the 66---considering cutting the console top for the dual switch and not even bother with putting the switches in the doors.

I just installed power wiondows in my 69 Chevelle last week. Got the entire kit from OPGI. The kit was simple to install no cutting other than for the switch holes. Cost was $489 http://www.opgi.com/product.asp?catmainid=1&topcatid=21&chapterid=21&GrpCode=13184&ProdCode=CH27361&yearrange=
Comes prewired just plug the connectors together and bingo power windows. I found that all the other after market power window kits had to be trimed or modified to fit but that was not the case with this kit.

Thanks for your help, was thinking of keeping the crank handels for looks but that looks nice.

Frank,
Do these window crank switches work with the stock window crank handles?
