I'm sure enjenjo or Skip do. I need to get some switches to control the rear windows in my sedan. I have fabricated swing-out windows using the tracks and motors from a late model Dodge Caravan. I want to have them independently controlled by the driver, but also have each passenger able to control their own window.

I don't know if I need single-pole, double-throw, or double-pole, double throw.......

Can anybody shed some light on this for me?

Thanks

You'll need double pole, double throw. Ball's has some nice switches, also Watson's Street Works.

Thanks! Is that the same for front and rear?

Yes. at the front drivers position, you will need 4 of these switches to operate all the windows

The switch I used to controll the door lock is a double throw double pole
momentary on--off--momentery on. the plus and minus go to the                        C *----*---*A  
                            B *----*---*D
center two unlabeld *'s and there will have to be a jumper from CtoD and AtoB then when you switch the lever it will reverse the polarity. Ed ke6bnl
