[john]

i've had a search as i know we have covered this subject but to no avail

so i'mn looking on what anyone has fitted within the door not a bolt on as i've done before but a manufacturers unit that will fit the 7's guides

I think it was Zekow who used some windows from a Toyota. It did come up on a search I did, but it isn't working for me now.

I have fitted an aftermarket kit from S&S. Seems to work well now but took a bit of sorting.

I used a kit from Moss - specifically made for the TR7/8...

HiGuys i've been gone for a while ,but i',m back

Ya I tried several ways and units and spent bokoo time on them and I was not happy with the results..

I am resigned for now to use the original till i can come up with something else.

I would like to see a pic or two on the S & S units or the Rimmers installed in somebodies car.

Nope!! it's still not running ,Maybe next week???

Hi Zekow,

It looks like I have the same system as you tried, will try and post some photos.

I fitted new regulators and felts, system works fine on drivers side but does drag on the passenger side. Main problem on the passenge side was the window catching on the door side impact bars. Had to realign the quaterlight frame to improve, I think some more adjustment is required.

As you found the after market systems are not as strong as the OEM and need help. I am very satisfied with the drivers side but the passenger side still needs a little work.

Having trouble with photobucket tonight, will try again tomorrow.

Tried to find the ones that were posted as Moss units. Could find any on the site.
Maybe I'm Moss illiterate.

Yes, they were from Moss UK. Bought the kits some 10 years ago;
Electric window winders - Central locking - Keyless entry - Remote boot lock - Alarm

Not too sure if they are available now as I got the boot release kit and central locking, but was unable to get my hands on the keyless entry. I remember looking for windows and there were none to be found, but if you do find them please let us know as I would like some.
