As the title really, is this possible.
So far I have fitted the mirrors themselves, changed both door looms and now fitted a switch but as soon as I turn the ignition on it blows fuse 29??? If I put my normal switch (windows only) back on it is fine and the fuse doesnt blow.
Am I missing something? Do I need a relay somewhere, does the d turbo come with all the wiring needed?
Cheers

Was the car originaly manual electric windows and have now fitted a auto window switch?
If so that's likely your issue

As chris said, you have fitted the wrong window switch. You have put ab auto window in. You will need the on that dosnt have an "A" on the drivers window switch. My mrs ph2 xsi has this so would be your best bet for for finding one

No my window switch failed completly. So i replaced it with am auto. But every time i touched it. Even the mirror adjuster it would blow the fuse.
I already had lecy mirrors but i replaced with a auto. But the OE one wasnt auto
