Talking Feeler: Power mirror retro harness

Okay, all you guys who wanted to retrofit power mirror, listen up.

Our cars are pre-wired for power mirrors only in the body, not in the doors. I have built one set of the door wiring harness that would complete the wiring. Would anyone be interested in buying it?

I guess an hour or 2 to install. I'll provide instructions with those wires.

Originally there's a clip to mount the jack the mirror plugs into to one of the holes in the door panel. If you can't source one, double sided tape would do.

If you have no power door locks and don't mind doing without the speakers for a while, send me your door wire and I'll wire them up for you for $40. I'll give you instructions on how to extract them.

i dont know if my car is special, vbut all i had to get for my swap over to power mirrors was the mirros the switch and the black triangles without holes for the inside.

i didnt have to run any extra wires to my doors. it was plug and play.

Hmm... How do I know? I tore into a 98 CE without power mirrors at the boneyard.

Can I wire up my power mirrors (directly) without a harness?

Yesterday I went to an ''electric'' shop and asked the owner (an asian guy) if they would wire up my new power mirrors http://www.ebay.com/itm/98-01-TOYOTA...#ht_3972wt_952, and his answer was: ''NO, to much of work''
What the f...??? I'm a unlucky guy lol...
