edco is on a distinguished road
Anyone know someplace I can bring my sons car for a power locks/window conversion(NJ)

Greetings..
My son proudly passed his road test and rather than let him drive my X5 or his mom's 325 Ci vert, we found a 2007 Chevy Cobalt sedan, with low mileage and still under GM warranty. The car REALLY runs well gets a staggering 32+ MPG, and even has a plug for his Ipod on the radio!

However, it has manual (as in roll up) windows and door locks. I never realized how much of a pain it is to run around the car and roll up all the windows and lock the doors (please dont remind me how lucky he is to get a car at 17..much less a 1 year old one in perfect shape..my first car was a 1963 Mercury Comet which would make left turns whenever it wanted..)

BUT, being the fact he's a good lad, good student, and all around good kid, I'm trying to find someone/somewhere that would do the install. There is actually a GM retrofit kit which is quite reasonably priced (like $200 for locks and windows)..it's just that I'm never any good at electrical..

So if someone has a relationship with a good shop to do this kind of conversion kit (in the big scheme of lambo doors, and subwoofers, TVs in headrests, this cant be that big a deal to accomplish), I'd like to hire he or she to do the job. Preferably within a reasonable distance from 08840 (central NJ). Willing to pay fair wages + any commuting costs if you decide to do it here since it can be done in my garage or yours.

I've started to prowl the Yourcobalt.com and similiar sites, but thought I'd drop a line here too, just in case there might be someone here that has a good contact..I do not want to go to BestBuy, Circuit City or any of those shops..and I've reached out to James at Mobile Addictions..Havent heard back from him yet.

Thanks and I appreciate your help in advance!
