Why do you need black seat belts?Are the ones you have now black?Reason I ask is its a pain to get ones that arent made for your car and adapt them to fit.

My dearly departed 95 GL also had crands. Pain in the ass, but the car was fun to drive. Strange thing was that it did have power mirrors.

i'm redoing my interior and need black seat belts to match. i may be able to use the grey tour belts. yea cranks are a pain. especially if you have the passenger down by yourself and it starts raining while you are driving.

Wierd how some of you have power locks but not power windows. The MTX Zetec I was going to buy had neither. It is not a big deal on coupes, but on a sedan I need power locks and windows! Reaching back is not cool!

If you have a Mystique, you'll always have power mirrors. Power mirrors were standard on Mystiques. My Mystique dosent have tilt wheel, but I read somplace that the design didnt pass US crash test standards so...yeah...and tilt wheel was an option on all Contours/Mystiques...not standard, only on newer ones was it stardard (Mystiques, not sure about Tours)

J.C. Whitney has power window kits to fit almost anything. This would be your best bet, after buying complete doors from a junkyard and having them painted to match of course. Electric windows are NOT something to fool around with if you're not knowledgeable about them. The springs in most systems will cut off hands and/or fingers in a hurry if you screw up. So BE CAREFUL.

Our 99 SE had tilt, cruise, PW, PDL, int wipers, rear defrost, AM/FM Cass and A/C all standard if I remember correctly. (FYI when I went to put on the Audi side marker lights, under the "SE" badge was a perfectly shaped hole in which the lights fit in. I got mine from APC, and I had to just widen the hole a tiny bit. But in case anyone else is considering this, that made it pretty easy. Then just ran the 2 wires up into the engine compartment and tapped into the blinker wires) Ken 99 SE Silver Frost 2.0 Liter Zetec ATX Tour
