Are the electric window motors in a facelift a staight swap into a pre facelift?
I know ill need to change the glass but need to know if wiring connections are the same?
Change the door loom,that simple?
E/window motors interchangable?

you do know that the mounting points on the inside of the door are different ! So you cant put the wrong mech inside the door (it just wont fit)

You mean the factory drilled mounting holes are different?
