Hmmm.. the switch out of a QC - now I guess that's another idea. I haven't
seen a QC in the yards yet. I consider myself lucky to find two Durango's in
there that had power windows! But my whole thing here is to keep it stock
looking, and if I changed to a QC door panel I would have to change the
passenger one as well. I also have NO idea how the switches are mounted on a
QC. I do know that the 00 and up Durango's have a different switch layout -
they are flat, the 98 "stands up". From looking around the yard the last few
weeks, I have come to the conclusion - that if I am successful at this
little project, I might get a switch out of a 00 up Durango for my father's
96 2500 Ram and make his rear quarter windows power as well when he is up
here some time :-)
