Default 95 Honda VX swapping to electric locks/windows

I know this kind of defeats the purpose of a VX.

But I seriously doubt adding this stuff will kill my mpg...


Anyways is there any quick/cheap ways to switch either power locks/electric windows?

What features did a fully loaded Honda Hatch have back in 95?

The money I save in gas savings I don't mind to do little things to this car for me to be more comfortable with it..

Any good cheap companies that do black leather covers too would be awesome. and even heated seats :D let me know


let me know what you all know about it.

If you really want leather, try and find a pair of 94-01 Integra seats....Mmm mm good, much more comfortable and has Lumbar support. Fit perfectly too.

if you got a whole set of leathers out of a 94-01 integra 3door. they would fit fine. As for harnesses, just get a door harness/dash harness out of a 93-95 coupe. The doors are identical to the hatch.

Did you read the DIYs? A lot of these questions are answered there. I don't want to stymie your enthusiasm but have a read of those. A thorough read. Links in my signature below.

Also ... it's almost more bother to NOT install the Power Mirrors than it is to include them with a retrofit. After you install the wiring harness ... it's a matter of the switch and the door mirrors. Up to you in the end I guess though. PM's are pretty handy though.

I didnt get time to read it all. But I like never ever move my mirrors once they set. So this install be for electric windows and the tweeters.

Just wondering if its a direct plug in play for windows itself. And all electric motors etc are easy swap over?
Gonna try read the diy

Yeah I read most of it. At work. I am not concern about hardware. I just hate wiring. So everything plugs in play then you just have pin connector or some on fuse box? I get lost with wiring quickly. I do everything but wiring lol. Unless its to repair damaged wires.

I just upgraded the audio. I installed a Boss 800W Amplified Sub for $111 shipped. Its freaking amazing.
