    Hello!

    I have a strange issue with my window switches on the driver side. I just bought a 97 spider (US) and the left switch controls the passenger window and the right switch controls the driver. I thought this was odd so I consulted the owners manual and it shows that indeed, they are backwards!

    Is it a simple case of swapping the plugs behind the door panel or swapping the switches around?

    Thanks.

    The bezel is held in with a tab on each side and was likely replaced at some point, as the tabs tend to break. The wiring connectors most likely were reversed at one point. The diagram shows the switches to be equal to each other and would allow you to leave them in the bezel positions and simply reverse the harness connectors.

    Thanks for all the help guys! I took the door panel off and switched the plugs around. All better now! YAY!
