Exclamation window switches

I always get tired of holding the buttons down to lower the windows. I was wondering if i was to get three more auto switches would they work with the existing motors in the door. thanks in advance

The circuitry for the OEM auto-down drivers window is contained on the circuit board inside the switch module. The switches themselves are just that, switches. There is no practical way to use OEM components to make the other windows auto-down.
However what you can do is install aftermarket modules wired into the existing switches to provide this functionality. It has been done and discussed, search around the interior, electrical and stereo/alarm forums here and at NASIOC.

If you was to get a aftermarket alarm system like Clifford/Viper and add the window model to it, you've be able to have that function. For Clifford cost around $400 for 2 windows installed or $500 for 4 windows installed. If you can DIY install then maybe half.
