Katman Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Can someone provide me with the location on the rear quarter window panel (the panel below the rear window and above the rear ash tray) where the power window switch goes? I've got one picture but it is not of the entire quarter window panel so can't determine exact location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCfan Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Hey, Mark, if I am understanding your question, the location of the power window switch in the rear door panels is exactly where the hole is for the former window crank. Just position the rectangular switch mounting frame over that hole and enlarge the round hole to the rectangular shape with a box cutter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katman Posted July 11, 2020 Author Share Posted July 11, 2020 Those panels are different. Maybe because mine is a 71. I'm not switching from crank window to power window. I had the panels recovered and they didn't mark the spot where the switch goes. But I'll see if I can use that opening as a reference to cut the hole for the switch. Thanks.

MC1of80 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Panels are different pattern but switch location is the same. Like MCfan said, the power windows switch takes the place/ same location as the manual crank location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 If you had your panels recovered wouldn’t the switch hole still be in the cardboard(like) panel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katman Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 As part of the kit, the cardboard is also replaced. I have a general idea of where it goes now so I should be good. Got to take the seat back out so doing it later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katman Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 Here's a shot of the installed window switch. Fun times taking back seat and all side panels back off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCfan Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Dang, Mark, you got it 1/4" off! jk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I know the position is correct because mine is the same. But I think gm should have put it in the center of the pleat. Just for looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
