ok cool. I am looking at the booklet that came with the kit and I noticed it has the chart showing what relays are needed to run power windows, trunk release, door locks, etc... does this mean I can run my stock electric windows with this kit? If so, how would I go about doing this?

-hey to run your cable-
did you buy one or did it come with it?
i bought mine from walmart it is actually a bike brake cable ($4.99) remove the linkage from the lower part of the latch the one that goes to the inside handle. then place on latch then reattach the linkage. then run it though the door jam then thur in the fender well. and then attach it there. this will cause the cable to pull straight and not at an angle and allow you to get it open. if you have any questions let me know i can try to help more.
