Has anyone sourced parts from the UK to replace electric windows with manual windows? If so... How much and where did you get them from?

These two statements are completely contradictory. I can't imagine a more time, resource, or labor-intensive project on a Rover than doing a diesel engine conversion and transmission swap.

Unless I stated that i don't like to work on mine it is in no way contradictory.some owners not me per say I like fiddling and modifying always have always will.:victory:


That being said I wish mine didn't have sunroofs and the electronics didn't control every single thing, there's alot to be said with K.I.S.S.

I am looking to keep mine simple. I have some issues with power windows on my 98 D1 and would like something that stands less of a chance getting stuck in the down position during a rain storm or forces me to use AC in the summer when they are stuck in the up position.
