Arrow Autotrix F-body Accessories

Hello Everyone,

I just started advertising here on camaroZ28 and wanted to get out here and let everyone see what we have to offer currently.

http://www.autotrix.net

We are a new company trying to bring new technology to older cars. GM fixed the problem with underpowered windows in there big SUV's but they didn't care much about our f-body's.

We offer several different and unique products and we have been adding to the list every since we came to be in 2006.

To start things off for the company we created a cheap kit with VERY detailed instructions that will allow ANYONE with a toolbox to install this kit and improve window motor life and function.

On our site you will see before and after videos. These videos are shot with the cars off and we did not grease or clean the tracks, so greasing the tracks will only improve the benefit of the kit.

The kit is $29.99

*This particular kit in this discussion is only a remedy for the passenger window.

By default power comes from your battery, through the fuse block and circuit breaker, then over to the driver side switch. Which also acts as a power load source to operate the passenger (and drivers) window. This long path of power and under gauged wire reduces the current flow and voltage the motor gets by quite a bit.

So your motor is underpowered which can:

1. reduce motor life
2. reduce motor strength and performance
3. makes the circuit breaker or window motor thermal switch blow and the window stop.

This kit will get power to the window directly from the battery. It will improve power to the driver side when both windows are being rolled up and down at the same time due to the switch on the driver side no longer needing to power the passenger side.

From the factory The driver side is powered fine when it is the only one operating but everytime you roll them up or down together they are both getting hit with low volatage. The kit will wake up your passenger motor, but you driver side may be going out if it is acting like the passenger window.

All the cars in the videos on the site have no driver side issues. Getting this kit before you have problems will only help make sure you don't have these issues early.

Window motors WILL fail like any electric motor, but they should not fail so soon. Our window motors should be able to last over 10 years during normal use when they are properly powered.

Glad to be a new member to this community!

You will just run the wiring provided to go to the battery to the back instead of the front. The kit will still function properly as long as you run everything to the battery like the original install.

Our remedy for the drivers side is the Drivers side express down module we offer.

Many people have wired up the passenger kit to work on the drivers side and this does take stress off of the switch but they are still going through their stock GM window express module and stock wiring.

The Autotrix Driver side Express Down Module is a specially designed module along with replaceable relays. It takes a direct fused 12V from the battery and uses relays to switch the power (much like the passenger side kit we offer). The Autotrix window module, in our testing, shows better voltage/current results and has a true one-touch operation; although with this particular item I would suggest having a new motor in place before install.
