      Aftermarket power windows...

      Anybody have any suggestions as to which aftermarket power window motors are the best? I'm thinking about either the Electric Life or the Nu-Relics. This is going in a 2nd gen Camaro. I'll be putting the switchs in the console.

      No experience with Nu-Relics, I've got Electric Life in my 69 Camaro. They work great! I've heard people say that the windows are slow. One problem I have seen in the past is from powering the window through a long length of think wiring and through the switch. I installed a relay in the door (with a decent size feed line, like 12G), and my windows are quite fast. Good luck!

      Hmmm... after reading all that it seems that there is a clear choice. Thanks!

      By the way, you came up with those threads by just typing keywords into the search box up on the right?

      nu relics is what I entered in the search, but I knew they would come up. "best power windows" probably would have done it.

      Thanks. That knowledge will probably serve me better in the long run ;-)

      I've used them all and the Nu-relics are the best by far. Shoot me an email and I'll hook you up.

      Nu-Relics is the only way to go but their switches are not cheap.

      I have used Nu_Relics twice. Both times with great success.
