they arn't al that hard to fit really. i almost diud but the car got nicked before i could fit them. if your taken from one motor to a new one then there pretty simple unless you haven't got holes in doors for loom them the crap starts,

no guide on this then i take it ?
www.nova-land.com used to have one
although you dont need one get the complete set up from a nova including the loom and switches
drill the 4 rivits that hold the manual mech out , the rivit 4 new ones for the leccys
drill holes from door to car (if there not there ,there marked out where)
plug into fuse box
eath near handbrake
plug switches in
obv you put all wires under carpet and will ne to cut a hole for the wires to the switches but the centre console wil hide this ::

Bastard links dead on nova land
on all my novas electrics windows have been complete fcukers. its not hard to make ya own loom for them. probably better replace most wires in ya loom anyway if they're quite suspect.i'll have a look for some diagrams iv'e got, i'll just warn ya they have a habit of breakin at the worst of times. my window would'nt go up at a festival i went to once and also when its a million degrees and i carn't the little bstrds down.
nick helped me with my dodgy loom etc somaybe pm him if you have any problems.

can you use any window switches i have cavalier ones kicking about somewhere that any good :?
cavalier ones dont work, i've already tried that, even with the extra frost button for when the windows are jammed taken off they dont work, must be something to do with the windows goin up and down themselves if the switch is held for a few seconds and then let go in the cavalier.
but either way, cavalier ones are no good, corsa ones work, drivers door switches out mk3 astra's work, not sure about the astra passenger diir switch though as it has 5 wires instead of 4.
hope this helps.

anyone stripping a GTE/GSi will be able to sell you the leccy window kit - whilst your there you may as well fit the central locking too - the loom for this is built into the window loom.
Its easyish to fit - but a word of advice - when running thcables from the door to the bod, DONT go through the door edge of the car, do it properly and run the cables through a rubber connector (similar to that on the hatch) into the SIDE of the car behind where the side wing indicators are - that way you wont bend and snap the wires when closing the door and you can also run more cables through for the central locking, speakers, door lock leds, etc...
fitting is fairly straight forward - anyone with a brain for working out the haynes wiring diagrams can do it!
youll need the nova switches, leccy window motor arm mechanisms, some heavy duty rivets, the loom, plug for the fuse board (just clicks in) and know how to strip your doors (if doing properly how to remove a wing), remove 1/2 your interior and thats about it.
for central locking you'll need soleniods, central locking switch relay (the drivers side is the master and operates the passenger side which is the slave), wires and fuse
