heres another little additon that i made to the relays, made it so that my windows will go up when i arm my alarm. also this will keep the radio on after ignition is off, and i can also turn the acc on remotely. posted_image


think i might add it so i can make them go down to, but that will be a little bit tricky, unless i just wire it up to another aux chan on my alarm. installing this and one for my high and low beems tomarow, ill see how it goes.....

Well, you should really use a window module and use ground when armed. Using just relays to control windows is not a good idea. Also it is not correct. Most windows are reverse polarity so just sending power won't work.

if you don't use the power window modules you may run the chance of burning those power window motors when it sets because you don't have anything to tell the window to stop.

Definately should have some sort of current monitor to shut off the output of the motors when the current spikes (from hitting the top).  Not doing so will lead to a short life span of your window motors.
