Electric Window Upgrade
ive searched for this but can't find anything. How difficult would it be upgrading my wife's 90 to electric windows? It's a Tdi but has a TD5 wiring loom if that's any help. What would I need to perform the upgrade and how difficult would it be?

Thanks.

Let me know how you get on as bizarrely on the listing its says they are for a Defender 110 - surely there can't be any difference from a 90 to a 110? The Rules:-

Will do. It'll be a little while before I get around to it though as I'm putting in an aftermarket central locking system at the same time.

Strangely that is also on my want to do list. Which package are you using for that? The Rules:-

I haven't decided yet as there are so many different options. You can pick some up cheap on eBay but the old saying is true I.e. you get what you pay for. I'm looking for the right system that won't interfere with the TK103b security system I have and also closes the windows when the key fob is used to lock the car.

Genuine parts aren't very expensive and easy to fit

I fitted that electric window kit a couple of years ago. It was a doddle and looks OEM.
