Hi all.
I just found this thread using the 'search' function, and I think it's exactly where I need to be!
***
My Cinq was broken into the other day, by forcing open the top part of the drivers door, therefore leaving me with a nice big gap between the door and the roof! The only thing that was taken was an old cd player which fails to work half the time! The £100+ set of speakers, amp and jump leads were totally untouched!
However, back to the door...
I have a silver bog-standard Cinq S with manual windows/locks.
As the lock/handle wasn't harmed, I thought I might as well get a 2nd hand door from the local dismantlers.
I ended up with a RED door with ELECTRIC windows and CENTRAL LOCKING for £25!
So far I have stripped the new door as far as removing the handles, door cards, storage compartment, electrics wiring, and door hinge bolts (the door was grinded away from the wrecked car!).
I am at the point where I need to remove the electric window regulator and the central locking actuator thingy. I believe from reading above, and referring to my Haynes manual, that this should be quite straight forward.
Before I start gettting carried away, am i correct in thinking I can just replace these electrical gizmo's with my elbow-grease manual components from my damaged door?
Cheers guys.
