Rolla__Boy Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Has anyone ever seen/heard anything about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'm pretty sure they never ever came out with electric windows. It'd have to be done aftermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolla__Boy Posted June 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 That's what I thought. My mate just rang me, and is buying a KE55 with apparently factory electric windows. The guy he is buying it off has owned it since new. So maybe he special ordered them when he bought it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Who knows. Best bet would be to call/email Toyota and ask what all the factory options were on the KE55. If its a KE55E, then it could be a possibility, but seeing as though KE70's that were first released didnt have them (not that I have read about anyway), I don't see why a KE55 would have them from factory.

Rolla__Boy Posted June 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'll take pics anyways and post them up here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Hardware Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 whats the difference between a KE55 and a KE55E? I know mine is the latter, and its a square-headlighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) Mr Hardware: You have a KE55E cos you ahve the wrap-around bumpers. I'm pretty sure the KE55E was only made in 1981, but i could be wrong and it may include 1980 as well. What year is your car? And were those bumpers fitted from the factory?

JiP Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 :faq: -That would mean that the KE55E also came with a swaybar. Pics would be good when you get them. I've actually wanted power windows in my KE30. It'd be interesting to know where the controls go and how everything is modified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xany Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Mine is a KE55E, made in 1979....round headlights, normal bumpers. Front swaybar, no rear (until i fitted one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Yup, the later model KE55's had swaybars. :faq: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 :faq: -The square headlight ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 It is possible that they have power windows as they came out around that time and that would be crazy :faq: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Whoa, I think I got a KE55E... Had the chrome wrap around bumpers, originally had airconditioning, has a rear sway bar and is a 1981 model; its got a square headlight front grill, too. Is the difference between KE55 and KE55e? No power windows though :faq: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent-KE30 Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Yeah I've got a 81' KE55E, With rear swaybar, Square headlights, AM/FM radio, No power windows here either, Trent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
