    e36 rear power windows

    Hello guys, I have 318, 97 sedan, with front power windows and I want to make rear powered too. I think I have everything needed to make it, but need to wire, can some with rear power windows or some one who did this to tell me witch wire should go or wiring diagram or DIY. I search over google, but nothing for sedan... I found coupe,convertible and compact but didn't help..

    By default, the BMW-issued wiring diagrams show the wiring for a four-door sedan ('Limousine'). They show with shading and/or annotation, the variations for the other models.

    The Compact, when it later appeared, got its own sets of diagrams.

    I'm confused. You have a sedan that has power windows in the front and crank-type windows in the back? That's not possible in the USA. I see that you are outside of the USA, but that does not cure my confusion.

    You need to get out more. (Just kidding.)

    US customers did not actually order their cars: BMW NA did, on the dealer's behalf, and included various options to make it easier to sell an ordered car to someone else. The base sedans, depending on the model, either came with crank windows in back or crank windows in front and back. I gather BMW NA always ordered their cars with option 411, electric windows in front and back.

    Like the OP's car, my first BMW, a '93 M40 318i, was ordered with option 410, electric windows in front.
