Fitted the mx5things window gizmo today. Should take about 45 minutes taking it slowly.
Hints and Tips
Door card comes off relatively easily. Note that you have to get your fingers / trim tool in-between the card and the rubber surround. The rubber DOES NOT come off with the door card.
See pic below . . . .
Small yellow circles - these door card clips stayed in the door, make sure you remove any clips and refasten to the door card before refitting
Big yellow circle - the door opening cables get in the way when reseating the door card. Put the door card on the top, insert fingers to hold the cable away from the door and reseat the door card.
Initiation - Option (a) - Windows close after roof activity
Doors closed / Ignition on (engine on or off, your choice)
Unlatch roof, leave it partially closed. Touch drivers window switch and close window by an inch.
Open roof fully and latch. Windows will close fully automatically.
Initiation - Option (b) - Windows open after roof activity
Doors closed / Ignition on (engine on or off, your choice)
Unlatch roof, leave it partially closed. Touch drivers window switch and open window by an inch.
Open roof fully and latch. Windows will open fully automatically.
THIS WILL BE REMEMBERED UNTIL YOU REPROGRAM IT
NOW THE BEST BIT
Drive with the roof down and park at your destination. Switch off ignition. Unlatch roof. Close and lock. Windows will close automatically. HOW MANY TIMES have you pulled up, closed the roof and had to turn the ignition back on to close the windows? RESULT!
