This is a very nice job. I wish I could weld like this.

If you would want one advise, then you could think about starting and ending a weld not directly in the corner - start and stop somewhere in the straight part. I hope it is ok for you if I make this remark.

Like the orange! Not sure how legal the bull bar is on the bumper though?

Not done any mods for a while, as I have my Jimny pretty much how I want it. But I saw a magic box on Aliexpress and thought it would be worth a try.
Basically it opens and closes your windows using the remote key fob.
It is working as it should and one bonus which I didn't expect, is that it has now turned the passenger side window into a one touch button, the same as the drivers window 


Choose LHD or RHD when ordering.


The loom as it comes, no cutting or splicing into the Suzuki wiring at all.


Remove the connector from behind the switch panel.


Plug the loom into the switch panel and connect the loom to the Suzuki connector.


Plenty of room up there to stick the module box and place the wiring.


Feed the long wire out across to the driver's side.


Behind the trim panel is the connector that feeds the wires through into the door.


Unplug.


And connect up the loom same as before.

One touch control for passenger window.

Get out the car with windows open and simply lock the car.

On approach to the car simply press Unlock-lock-Unlock to open the windows, you can stop the windows where you want by pressing the unlock again where required.

It can also just open the window a crack, but this is only about 10mm, 25 to 50mm would have been ideal.

Painted the spare wheel carrier. Not my best brush work, but at least a good thick coat of Hammerite will keep it rust free.
