Well now that the wife's 95 has the power antenna working. I have turned my attention to my 99. Over the next couple of weeks I intend to add the lighted entry system w/ lighted lock cylinders and door pocket lights. also the old style interior door locks with the white on them. I am starting with the passenger door since I will get the most improvement there. When complete it will have the following:
Lighted lock cylinder
Lighted entry system w/ door handle switch
Interior door pocket light
Auto down
Mystique interior trim panel w/ corner courtesy light.
I'm also going to throw in the rear Mystique dome light as well.
That's the plan we shall see how it goes. I have started on building the wiring harness using a 99 Mystique harness as a basis, and by collecting the other necessary parts, getting them ready for incorporation. I plan on posting pics as I go and have a few new thoughts since I did the auto down on the 95. In checking the connector as part of the prep work I find that my 99 does not have a couple of pins that I would normally need so I am going to be doing a bit of testing to see what will work in lieu of the missing power / circuit tie ins. If worse come to worse I can add the pins into the body connector and splice them into a circuit as needed, but removing that body connector is a real pain to get to, ANYTHING ELSE WOULD BE PREFERRED!
Harness comparison for location of auto down relay.

Auto down relay and wires removed from donor harness. One could just cut & splice wires, but I prefer to remove wires all the way to connectors, and add them back into connectors to limit the need for a splice.

As always comments and suggestions welcome.
