electric windows in a bug or type 3 is that a good idea ? and what will it take

I installed electric windows in my 412 Variant a few years ago, and it was relatively easy. The back window mechanisms and switches from a donor Audi 500SE worked perfectly. You biggest challenge will be inside the door hinge, where the wires run from the body to the door. Since there is a lot of movement during the opening and shut of the door, you need to take great care to ensure that the wires do not break there, and cause a short. I used the telescopic rubbers from a Jetta II Cli, and the end result looked almost factory-fitted. Nowadays, you can buy aftermarket electric window kits, that makes the installation even easier!

Audi 500 window mechanism was the way to go, try find a set now.
