    Why spend $20 on a replacement OEM window switch when you could spend $20 on a pile of junk that will make your car look like ass? If any girl ever sees this she's leaving. Immediately.

    A) When you drive a patched together 54 horse power 1982 Skoda Garde Coupe girls are not on your radar, making it home is.

    2) Where do you find a window switch for that highway rolling gem?

    Operating that getup while driving, Check, forgetting to unplug it in either direction results in burned out motor Check, what could go wrong?
    It seems like a double throw double pole momentary contact toggle switch would have been cheaper, quicker to install and would not have looked near as bad, plus safer to operate.
