I dont know, but they obviously dont need my money so they wont get them. I think John has what I need and if that is the case he'll get them instead.   but, I'll look into the autolocs anyway because they could be used to make power vent windows (thanks for the idea Ed)   Have Fun André -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dale Sent: 16. juli 2005 01:09 To: 'The Chevelle Mailing List' Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] power windows I’m thinking A1 must be incorrect or they have odd-ball kits for 68-69.  GM parts book shows the same rear power (and manual) regulator assembly for 68-72 sport coupe & convertible.   Dale McIntosh 67 El Camino 1967 Chevelle Reference CD beta now available!

I wasnt really that interested in whe the deals between you and jegs. As a client I just asked which internet site was right, your site or jegs site. I asked this because I intended to buy a kit from you and didn’t mind modifying a kit intended for another car if you didn’t offer a kit for my car. I guess this is not the best day of the week for you, but is this customer service???

They are our competition. They list kits for the 68 because they don't know any better.

I'd need both front and rear. thank you!

Does the rotary part that the handle used to fit on still stick out of the door panel? If so, what did you do to cover it up? Overall, how did you like them?

For 68 and 69 hardtop they state, “Bolt in window kit is not available for this application.  The GM90-K and GM93-K will not work correctly in this car!”   Maybe someone else makes them but another alternative is to use a universal kit like those from Spal or http://www.autoloc.com/search.lasso?partno=pw44 .  They don’t replace the entire assembly but rather have a drive that slips over the factory handle stub and it’s motorized.  I used a complete set of four on my 67 and really liked them.  Easy to install and didn’t have to take apart the entire door or rear quarters to make ‘em work.   Here’s a photo of a unit on my front door and the rear windows were essentially the same setup. http://www.dalesplace.com/images/chevelle/elec_windows.jpg     Dale McIntosh 67 El Camino 1967 Chevelle Reference CD beta now available!
