Has anyone fitted leccy windows to the rear of a V40???

reason i as is are the wiring looms the same throughout the spec range e.g the T4 same as the T4 CD and so on, and how hard is it to fit leather heated seats (when i dont even have the heated seat switch on the dash)


and the most important question what mods are there to be done need ideas and if people have pics of whats been done would be awesome.

Hi Benji
So I guess you bagged your T4 then. Well done. Unfortunately, no idea on your rear electric window conundrum, but as for first mods - STRUT BRACE, STRUT BRACE, STRUT BRACE.
Drive it round for a few weeks to get the feel and to realise that the front end needs nailing down, then invest the £160 for the brace. Then you'll have a real 328i killer!

Strutbrace sounds an awesome idea, is there a rear option too??

anything to combat the torque steer. as shes a little wayward on fast accelaration, and any ideas what would make a creaking sound when changing gear, (move off in first then clutch in change the gear then clutch out and creak lol)


please excuse the crude explanation
