hello m8 i was wondering as ive never seen it done before and as ive converted my doors to have elec windows WITH the 1/4 window still there. im in need of elec window switches but dont want them in the dash or console? so i thought mk3 cards would be a wicked idea????

thats pretty cool actually. mabye you could just pinch the window switches from the mk3 cards and cut a slot in the mk2 handgrip and wire them in from there?? do you have all the wiring needed??

Early Corrado's had door mounted switches in the panel rather than the handle/bin like later ones..
HTH..
