Fitting aftermarket window switches

[JMC20R]

Hi all,

I am currently using the stock drivers window switches which I have relocated to the dash, but looking to change them to a nicer aftermarket switch set.
The switches that I will be using are K698. Does anyone know if its possible to use the stock loom to make these switches work, or will I have to wire directly to window motors and bypass the MTU?

Last night I did have a go at wiring the passenger window up. Somehow managed to wire in a way that either up or down input turned the side lights on
If anyone can share any info on how to wire these up it'll be appreciated

Thanks in advance
James

You definitely can use these wires, I once owned a mk2ph1 with a retrospective electric window install, I managed to install sport door cards and standard switches, but this was about 10 years ago so I’m afraid that’s about all I remember.
