    can you give me a link to where I could purchase one? or atleast look into it more?

    I'm just making one. So since I can find many window control modules online for less than $20 is that the way to go?

    A little automotive help

    So if I found one with an auto up AND an auto down I could use it and probably just use some sort of trigger to connect the pins? Say the trigger could be the door locks? How would I get the ignition to activate this?

    great idea... could that work without actually pressing the button on the window automation module? And how come nobody knows what goes into that type of circuit?

    here it is, the relay is a simple DPDT 10VDC/10A plug-in relay from RadioShack. Like I eluded to before, I believe this would work (correct me if I'm wrong) if I wasn't worried about frying the mirror's motors... which of course I don't want.

    ok, here's what I drew up. The switch is just a simple Radio Shack DPDT relay here: https://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2049722&cp=2032058.2032230.2032277&allCount=30&fbn=Type%2FDPDT&f=PAD%2FProduct+Type%2FDPDT&fbc=1&parentPage=family As I eluded to before, I believe this...

    Location added A microcontroller sounds like it could definately do the trick but I have NO Earthly idea how to even begin use on one of those... I'm assuming that's what Eagle CAD has to do with? How much are microcontrollers BTW? This is an add on to the car that did not previously have...

    The mirrors DON'T have cutout sensors on them... and I've been tempted just to try and add something to do that. So no, once they're out (or in) the current does not stop flowing. I do have the relays but they are from another project so I'm not stuck to using them. I'll draw something up...

    First off I just want to say hey. I've taken circuit classes in college but never really applied the knowledge to real life stuff so I'm slowly making my way around. My problem is this... my car has side mirrors that fold in and out but they are currently not hooked up to do so. They both...
