Electric Life P/W vs Nu-Relic - my review
No comparison. 1967 Mustang. I put in the Electric Life kit from Summit 5-6 years ago and stuggled mightily getting the windows to roll up past the seals. Plus when you rolled them down they dropped down into the door like a rock, it was actually scary. I trimmed and fussed the seals on the door and the roof endlessly and even reduced their utility somewhat and could just get the windows to roll up with the door closed, as long as the battery was strong or the car was running, but it was always a close run thing and I couldn't keep the seals tight.
Was putting glass in my new doors and they just sucked again. So I ponied up for the Nu-Relic electric windows and what a difference. First of all they use a spring just like a factory regulator to slow down the descent and store some energy for the ascent, and they use bigger motors and more powerful frames. No problem rolling up the windows right into the seals plenty of power. They still clank and clunk a bit, there is not quite enough clearance between the motor and the roller rail, but its a small price to pay for the extra power.
I have a set of Electric life power windows for '67-68 if you're interested ha ha but I don't feel good about even ebay'ing these things.
