      both are univeral kits and would not bother. look for direct bolt in components. We use nurelics window kits and have had no issues. what car do you have? We have bolt in power lock kits for some vehicles as well by another company that makes install a snap

      Thanks for the replies.
      There is no way I can pay 700 dollars for power windows just for the front
      I appreciate it but I cant do that
      I will look into modoinnovations thanks.
      I figured I was looking at getting a universal setup that why I used those two places.
      I just wanted to know what guys where using and were there any problems with the install.
      Thanks again

      This. I've read a lot of Nova and Camaro owners had problems with Electric Life conversions. Everyone seems to recommend Nurelics. I was going to use their stuff when I was ready to change my windows over to electric.

      Front only are not $700. They are around $400. You did not mention what car you had.

      All i do is bolt my nonpower glass tracks to the arms?

      No difference in tracks. Only regulator get replaced. Switches available in several styles. Chrome switch like found in mid 80's gm vehicles, or black illuminated switch like found in BMW's. For extra cost, there is another chrome switch with correct style billet bezel, or nu-cranks, which look like window crank but actually momentary PW switch.

      Do the nu-cranks allow the use of a factory style or aftermarket handle or are you stuck with whatever they provide?

      I run the Electric Life setup in my 71 Monte for 5 years now (front and rear) with zero issues.

      Toughest part of the install was drilling the large holes to feed the wires from the doors and pillars...

      I use their billet switches...

      it utilizes stock splines so you can rub whatever crank you want to install

      Hey Mike is the speed about the same as a newer vehicle?
      Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting - Holy cow - what a ride!!!
      See my build

      depends on the vehicle, usually a tad slower but not real slow like EL
