A long shot; manual windows

Post by djoptix »

I'd like to change the 16v to manual windows, partly to shave a bit of weight off... but more to shave the bother of electrics off. I know there were hardly any BXs with manuals but I thought I'd ask. I'm guessing the door cards might not be interchangeable, so if anyone wanted I would swap my Monza door cards with working (though iirc the passenger one is slow) electric window setup for a set of pov-spec door cards with manuals.
Good heavens! My signature's been moderated...

They are the same winding gear, the electric ones simply have a motor in place of the manual crank.

Weight wise, there gonna be about the same, I personally can't see anything to gain. :?
