Has anyone found a solution to still having the rear power windows operate when the front doors are removed?
Currently the rear windows do not work when the front doors are removed/unplugged.
I usually have my dog in the back seat and I like to be able to open and close the windows in the back.

Shouldn't it be as simple as short circuiting or controlling the window lock switch? I can't say I have read into this but it would seem to me that the windows don't work because the window lock defaults to locked when the switch is unplugged. Should just need to find and jumper the correct wires.

Yeah, you can hard-wire them but you'll need to use relays to isolate left and right. I think the wires are purple and purple/white coming out of the rubber grommet in the door. Find the ground and apply 12 volts to whatever wires you find in there and see if you can get the windows to roll.

I've thought of the same thing, I wondered about seeing if I could just get another switch setup from the wrecker to plug in whenever the doors were off..
