E36 window control swap

[Mastrcruse]

I just spent an ass load on a new top and it looks fantastic but sometimes the cars window hits it. I don't want this to happen. I got my windows realigned the other day but the drivers side still hits a small section. I saw that the e36's have a control that drops the windows if you pull the handle half way or so. Can I swap this in the e30? What would consist of the swap? Anyone do this before. Can someone make at setup like this..stereoinstaller?
Thanks

Anyone have a clue if this can be done?

i believe you are talking about the "one-touch" E36 switches. these don't work with our cars..however i have seen some "one-touch" modules. there was a thread on this not too long ago

Not what he's talking about at all. He's talking about a feature that when you pull up on the handle on the outside of the car (or the inside) the window will go down a tiny bit to clear the weather stripping. It's basically a feature for cars without frames around the entire window.

oops...im mad tired, my mind is playin games with me

but in any case, that feature will wear out the window motor quickly..

In reference to the one touch down switches, I was talking to a guy at BavAuto about their switches and he seemed to know of a fix to 'convert' the E30 to be able to accomodate the e36 one touch switches. Has anyone heard of that?

This is what I am talking about. I want them to come down when I pull on the door handle. There is another thread a couple down on the page that talks about the one touch windows.

your point doesnt prove anything, however i dont think it will wear out the window motors, i mess with my windows more than that during the time im driving anyway, if you can get it to do that let me know casue i want it to, you could have so much better of a seal at the top of the window like that
