There are a few problems you will have when intalling a JDM power window kit.

1. JDM is RHD, so their passenger is our dirver and vice versa. So if you intall the switches you will only be able to control one window while passenger will be able to control two.

The way to solve that is to flip the switches upside down and change sides, so on driver side you can now control both windows. When you do this the switches are reversed and up means down and ice versa.

You will have to make sure that the rods will now mount to the reversed handles and rewire your switches so they work in the proper way.

2. The doors have holes for the regulator to mount but a lot of the other holes will need to be inlarged or drilled for everything to mount.

3. Wiring sucks. The harness for the doors are different, it is not plug and play. There are different pin-outs and you will have to bypass the plugs and patch directly in to wires. Make sure you patch into the proper connections and read your schematics.

4. After all is done and working you have holes in you door panels form where the window crank originally was, but a good way to cover them is to mount tweeters over the hole.

Hope this helps.
