[W126 Coupe] Power window

[Axel Wulff]

Markus,

Yes, I am having the BergWerks 1-Touch window control module installed. I 
got the 2-window version, not the 4-window kit. Did not really see the use 
for having all 4 windows on it. Now that BerWerks is no longer in operation, 
I regret that decision.

I was supposed to pick my car up last Friday, but somehow work got in the 
way and pickup is now on the calendar for Aug. 12th.

Can't wait!


Regards,
Axel J. Wulff
