    Works like a charm. One hit up and down. Hold and let go to stop where you want if going midway. Arrived in manufacture packaging; no hiding what it is. No instructions in the box, was expecting that from other posts. About ten minutes total. Installed in 2 min. Takes more time screwing around with where to shove the box, looping extra wires, adding electrical tape to secure it down from rattles, and messing with those white clips to put panel back on. It’s the lower black plug in pic (from KTJO install page). Bring a knife to cut the electric tape around those three looms to get more room to move wires around. Plenty of space to shove it all in there. Works super smooth with no hiccups and well worth the $40 and ease of install.

    That's awesome. Glad it worked out for you. Are you gonna relocate your switch to the center console now?

    No it’s cool, I do not find it inconvenient on the left side to reach.

    Any safety built into this for if an arm or something gets caught in the the window when it's automatically going up?

    Morning, I would assume no. Not sure I want to test that, lol. I believe anti-pinch features are built into the windows smart motors (not the switch) and auto reverse when an obstruction is detected. My 16 4R back window did exactly that. Wonder if that part is comparable.
