[QUOTE="xcmeo, post: 591268, member: 9946"] Usually those car acc shops are not interested to do all these DIY as its not cost effective. They rather be installing some expensive sound system for you or some product they sell in the shop. Another reason is, even if they DIY, the workmanship & reliability of the 'modified' product is not there and you may end up bugging them after that due to the constant failure of the non-R&D product... In the end they lose time & money for some modified project... Now you understand why many not willing to do the mods? For your project... No.1 - rear power windows seem possible, just need to find the correct bracket & motor gears to fit your current manual window winder. Then pull necessary wiring. No.2 - Electric reclining seats? Is your recline done by a rotational round knob or a pull handle? If rotational knob still possible but very difficult to modify & fit the motor powerful enough to move it, let alone hide the motor somewhere under the seat/inside. If the pull handle type, not possible, if yes also not worth the effort. No.3 - This you have to consult the car workshops that do welding, etc. May be possible but workmanship would suck... Good luck. [/QUOTE]
