Title: remote auto close (and open) windows?
Post by: Anonymous on September 28, 2013, 23:48
Hi there, I now have a 2000 MR-S that will mainly be a trackday car. Unfortunately once driven onto my narrow trailer I can't open the doors to get out so have to drop the hood and climb out that way. I want to find a way that I can remotely raise or lower a window so that I can reach in to secure or release the roof before I climb in or out.  I know on some VW's that by turning the door key in a specific manner that the windows raise, but no such luck on the MR-S. Is there any solution that leaps into peoples minds?  Thanks for any suggestions.

thanks for the suggestion..I'll look into it to see if such a system will allow window lowering.  I suppose the alternative would be to fit a window switch on the car externally and leave it permanently live, but I suspect that might be more complicated.
