Would be a lot of work and lots of parts needed, similar idea here, not sure if progressed. I guess you have manual and wish to change to factory type electric? Perhaps look at 3rd party stuff?

I've never done it myself but i know that there are kits that can be bought that can convert manual winding windows into electric windows using the same manual mechanism. It works with a motor being mounted with a connector(think its a bowden cable) leading to the old manual winder. when the button is pressed it winds the maunal winder in the direction required.

So basically it still uses the manual mechanism and theory but uses a motor to rotate the winder as opposed to the user winding it.

see: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mercedes-Sprinter ... dZViewItem

This is the kit and am pretty sure its universal.

www.motor-world.co.uk do it for £99

Hope this helps
