lol no no no only when you stick the key in the door and turn and hold it in the unlock position will it roll down the windows... but most of the time you use the key fob to unlock the doors so the windows wouldnt go down unless you put the key in and turned and held it....

Nope.. it's just the power window kit period.

This option can be installed if you get an alarm/keyless entry kit with that option in it. There are several for sell that do this.

Is it possible to use the wiring from the kit with factory power door wiring? I thought I read somewhere that you need a whole new harness + a comp flash, so by using the stock door wiring and the kit wiring, wouldnt that eliminate the need for the harness and the flash and is it possible? I might do a door swap, problem is I have dont have power, the other doors are powered. Any thoughts ideas would be great

Sorry for the hijack
Brian

I'm looking at adding the 2dr power windows to my JK but want to mount the switches to the center dash like the 4dr version...but it looks like the 2dr kit only comes with the door mounted switches. Does anyone know of an alternate switch that can be mounted in the center dash for the 2dr kit?

Thanks,
Maxx2308

I started installing my Electric Life 4-door kit last night So far it's 10,000x easier that trying to mount the lock actuators.

I do like the look of this kit but I would get the factory switches for the front inbetween the air ducks to make it look for factory...
sorry for the old thread revival, but look up a DEI 530T
power window module. u can connect it to your alarm and roll up/down the windows with ur key fob
