Leccy windows bypass ignition

Post by bogbasic » 22 Apr 2013 02:16 pm

Just curious, is there any neat way (i.e. with minimal mods to the wiring, etc) to make electric windows operable without having the ignition on? I guess its a volvo safety/security feature to make them only work when the ignition key is in place and turned, but with them indoors having a combined age of 205, its not terribly convenient when they're left in the car (grumbling about the heat/cold)!!
