Check your door cards first there may well be a cut out in the hardboard behind even if the material is covered on top. The hole for my electric mirrors was there I just had to cut an X in the vinyl.

yeah i got that one allready, nice and easy but there is not the hole for window switches. I looked at some door cards at bvf this year and on the back it had outline of holes faintly marked from the press tool during manufacture. but on my ones...guess what.. no such luck. anyone got a photo of standard set up even? ive had good look around internet but cant find what im looking for.....

Im just fitting manual winders to my 88 t25 as the windows leak a bit
pretty come so i gather from the guys on the forum
my leaked so much that they messed up the electric motor.
So test your doors by chucking a cup or two of water down them with door cards off
its the only way to see how much they leak before throwing your
money at them. Good luck. Oh by the way ive covered the
back of my cards with water proof plastic ( i thought all plastic was wayer proof, but there you go.) ive allso coverd the back of the speakers to.
