      The switches were located on the rear doors.

      There were two styles of rear vent windows on the malibus. I was referring to the ones like this:

      The actuator is mounted to the C pillar on these and pushes the window out the same way the festiva and all the minivans referred to in this thread do.

        Thought of two more possibilities on the way home.. was following one of these.

        What do the Kia Sedona's have on them? The area where the licence plate is appears 90% the same as our Festivas.. and the back pillars looked about the same angle as what I have..

        Also, anyone checked out the Kia Rio's? They were the sequel to the Pride.. maybe the early years might have compatible parts..
        Carz:
        '09 Ford F-150
        '80 Chrysler LeBaron Town and Country
        '80 Volvo 240 2dr coupe

        '93 Festiva GL
        225996.9 kilometers = 140428.0 miles on the odometer
        ...and definitely more soon..

          hows about some radical engineering. Proper lenght of rope, a spring, and some fancy welding. I bet it could work, OR just pay the little neighbor kid who is always interested in your car, ride along and open them when you need it!
          In the 90's we had Clinton in office. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama in office and we have no Hope and no Cash.
          God grant me the serenity to accept what I cannot change, strength to change what I cannot accept, and wisdom to hide the bodies of those who piss me off!:-)
          This is NOT an abandoned vehicle
