i read another post about using relays to control up/down of windows via remote. I am interested in this with the use of limit switches. However i don't have any exp. with using them. i understand basic principle. need help with how they install, location they need to be.

another option is time delay circuit but again no exp with it. any help would be appreciated.

the ride is 97 expedition with sea-8081 alarm system with 12 ext expansion pac and digital paging system.

really trying do without purchase of window module but may be forced to buy anyway. thanks

It seems like it may be more hassle trying to do install limit switches and building a circuit of relays and time delays. A $10 window module can control two windows up, add another if you also want to control them down.

150 is ridiculous unless that is for the Twindows Brand modules including installation. I purchase the generic ones locally from a distributor. However, you can get them for $15 on ebay new, just do a search.
