Re: GV cam follower

Ok
Do you have a odd etc on these chain tensioners.
I can do must jobs but will I be able to undo a bolt or two to pop off the tensioner and replace with new.
I mean without taking the chain off etc.

All the parts in front of radiator / engine shouldn’t be an issue.

Hi,

Re: More than one Auto window

The switch that you see and operate is just cosmetic.
I mean I’ve just taken it all apart and the actual switch is soldered to the circuit board.
It’s not like your normal car where you unplug a loom from a switch to then plug in another switch to try.

Thanks anyway.

Re: More than one Auto window

Hi
Yes you are correct.
All windows are electric.
Drivers is auto.
If you hold down drivers switch for say two seconds you can then let go and the window will go all the way down on its own.
Tomorrow I will swap them over and test.

Thanks.

Adding front fog / spot lights

Grand Vitara 2004.

Current in my front bumper there are no fog / spot lights.
Is there a loom which is mounted in the engine bay where once I fit the lights can then be connected or
Do you need to start from scratch and install it all.

Thanks.

More than one Auto window

Hi,
Do you know of a modification so I can have two front auto windows as opposed to just drivers side.

Thanks.
