    Vamp has it posted on his site. It's pretty much a hack job. Fairly simple.

    Also, will stuff from other cars work? Theres a nice Alero lying in a local junkyard that has power everything, and a nice central control at the driver's side. It also has power seats, thats is so nice!

    be carefull, you might blow a fuse on your prism if the wrong ohm, apmerage, and all that electrical jargon is too much for your car. it can be done to some extent but you're probably asking for an electrical overhaul.

    we can always use a guinea pig for these kinds of things!!

    I don't think Japanese designed cars are compatible with American car parts.

    the only thing about manual door locks and windows is that it's hard to pick up chicks. you have to stretch over to your right, and roll the window down. now what's pimp is rolling down the window with the press of a button. "hello ladies!"

    What all is needed to upgrade to power mirrors? I found somebody selling the control panel but I don't know what all I need besides that, like wires motors and what not? Anyone knows about this?

    i say, go suicide doors. no wait better yet go lambo door conversion. nothing is sweeter than seeing a chick squating slightly to get under the door of a lambo door.

    yeah, lambo doors... game over right there.

    But Isn't It Cheaper To Get An Conversion, Than Buying Doors From A Corolla S?
    It Better Be A Murdered Out Pinto......
