For some reason, my moredoor m30 project has no way of opening the rear windows, it has no mechanical winders or electric buttons. They just have a rectangular blank either side where a button would go.!?

Anyone seen this before? The front windows are electric so I'm guessing the rears might have electric motors inside and just need electric switches.?

Could be that a previous owner has swapped the interior and the replacement was from a car with power rear windows.

Bet that when you take the rear cards off you will find manual gear!
