Re: Jeep TJ: Power Windows..didn't someone say you couldn't do this??
I'll agree with that too, and everybody has varying levels of what they
want and don't want. I personally LOVE the improvements on the soft tops
since my CJ7s, but someone else may decide that is decadence of the
marque purely for the opulent. I think it f-in' groovy.
While I'd never put power windows/locks on my TJ (mainly because I
either usually go with no top or a soft top and it's either minus doors
or unlocked) but I sure like the fact that it's an option on the
aftermarket. I certainly don't think that aftermarket products of any
kind ruin any automotive ICON.
If they brought out the "CJ Classic" built just as they were in late 86,
I'd sure make the purchase with the flat, no-airbag dash and all...with
A/C. :)

Aw, he just doesn't know that a REAL JEEP was made by Bantam and his old
CJ2 is a bastardization of that original. :)

Re: Jeep TJ: Power Windows..didn't someone say you couldn't do this??
my jeep didnt have power windows or locks.. i wanted them.. i bought some
actuators and installed them with my alarm (locks) and rememebr a "how to" for
power windows on someones webpage, so i used that to source my parts and
installed. i think a few months later a kit became available lol. oh well..
anyways there are always things to complain about in any vehicle.. and doing
the above was a HELL of a lot cheaper than trying to get my rx7 to handle the
mud and rocks as well as the jeep did. :)
