    + Has anyone found an aftermarket replacement for the 308 window
    switches? Something with similar mounting geometry? The current
    carrying capacity is not much of an issue as I plan to control the window
    motors with contactors (relays).

    + How much current does a moderately healthy window motor draw?
    If I run heavy gauge hot lines to the doors, I need to fuse them over
    at the fuse panel(s). Even if I can't get that info in advance, I can
    just measure the current drawn by my motors and fuse accordingly.

    + Anyone have a scan, JPG or PDF format perhaps, of the early 308GTB's
    electrical system? I would appreciate a copy. Thanks.

    Actually those are different than the carbed cars. I have a couple of those older switches. I have no use for them so you can have them if you want. I'll did around for them tonight.
