Hey everyone did you know that you can use a time delayed relay to close your sunroof and windows when you arm your VW?  This works mostly with VW's 90 and up that have power windows and in some Audis. 

First check to see if you car will role up its windows buy turning the key to its door lock position and hold it there if your windows roll up then your all set. 

Buy a time delay relay ($20 bucks from DEI i think) and then send a long pulse to your door locks for when you arm your car.  Dont worry, if your windows are all ready up your car has a relay inside that will cut off the power to the motor if the window is already up.

Also in some new 2000 and up Audis you can just send a negative pulse to the windows to roll up or down, test the switch on the drivers side to find the wires. but it may need the ignition on, might be good for when your doing remote start.
