just got my window control module and im ready to install. but i cannot seem to plan out how i am gonna get it from the door to the car. i can either go through the plug or drill a new hole. normally i would go through the plug, but the problem is, i gotta get 4 wires in+16GA wire for future system install. anyone have any bright ideas?

i suggest pulling the wire through with a coat hanger (going through the little booty where the other wires are run)
or you can take a screwdriver and pry the seal of the booty on each end leaving you open spots to run wires through, then so its not a sight for sore eyes wrap it all up in electrical tape when your done. |

I just did it for my locks, I wrapped the hot/ground wires together and they had enough stiffness to make it through.
Takes a few tries, just make sure you go from door to car. -------------------- |

When I wired in my new mirrors I had to run wires that were missing.(to control the folding motor)
I used a coat hanger with the wire taped to it to pull them through the door rubber plug, 90% of my install time was just running the wires. I was very happy with the final result as things look stock with no new holes or out of place wires. -------------------- 1994 GT-S (BEAMS) swap complete |
