Default Window Valet installed and working!

I got my Window Valet in the mail today and just plugged it into the car and set it up. It was a little hard to figure out at first (this thing is way more powerful and complex than I had imagined - but that's a good thing). Because I was anxious to get it working, I wanted to hurry through the instructions like I usually do (and that's NOT a good thing), so it took me a couple tries to get the windows enabled. It will probably be a bit confusing to others as well, but just a little patience and careful reading (the WHOLE instruction sheet) and it's easy to do and works like a charm.

Thanks a bunch Jeff Scano.

I got mine in the mail today also. Installed in 30 seconds, and programmed
in a few minutes. The directions were a little more involved than I thought, but still a breeze. I do like the cool factor, I think the whole thing is a good idea, I think Jeff is a good guy doing the gp, but I still don't quite get the price/worth. Oh well, looking forward to using it.
p.s. I have an 04 CE vert too.

Steve.

Jeff's the best! The Window Valet is a beautiful thing... it's my only "bling" mod - and it's hidden

Love it!

YEP, I'm electronically technical as a doughnut and it took all of 2 minutes to get mine programmed and operating. Went and called all my neighbors and relatives and told them what a genius I is.

I like the "Panic Mode." It may come in handy someday. Ya' know, when a peace officer might want to discuss the reason you were exceeding the speed limit...... "Ah, officer, gee, my tach and speedo are broken. See!"

Hi rickko-
Be Careful .... I thought about this when I read it on the description a while back ... gives up any defense one might have. "If your equipment is broken, then you really have no idea how fast you were going. Did you?" <----Judge saying guilty

I got mine yesterday as well- all hooked up and working great. Set the alarm off twice because I would hit lock three times to roll the windows up then just unlock the door and get out- made me laugh.
Thanks to Jeff for the GP!
