OK Stupid boy idea for stupid girl question.

Have you tried bending your finger and sticking the knuckle in the see if you can raise the switch with your knuckle?

My JL is in another state right now si I am unable to test this idea.

Good luck.

PS. I like back scratched. Keep the nails.

@Jjirish,

I usually find your posts entertaining. However, you have outdone yourself this time.

Just what I needed to start the day.
So... you're entertained by lil ole sweetloving me .. well... i also get chased every morning by ginormous turkeys who want to mate with my jeep....

Oh crap, I think she just ''ignored'' you

:)

Seriously, although the question is really relevant and nothing presently exists for that, if I was a lady with that problem, I would most likely use the top part of my thumbnail to close the window.

Now not sure if that would induce pain or damage your nail polish, but I'd try that.
Heres a video...

Very carefully
I would like to think that I have pretty good problem solving skills, but I see no way that she can properly wipe down there other than using a towel, and hopefully pulling form the front to the back.

I’d Rather Talk Jeep’s!
Been sittin’ here a minute brainstorming for alternative solutions. Here’s one:

You could remove the switches, mix up some bondo, and apply making a general shape. Let cure and then sand to your desired shape. Then paint. Not sure how well the bondo would adhere to existing buttons.

The 3D printer seems like a better option for consistent looking buttons. And I’m assuming you would have whole new entire switches made? There has to be a company out there that can capture 3D scans of the switches, import it into CAD (or something), design entire new switch, and 3D print new switches (not just an extension that has to be glued on).

1. Knuckle doesnt work.... not enough leverage
2. Got no back to scratch!

I was assuming there would be can bus involved, but looking at the diagrams it may not be.

Looks like you can just splice a momentary switch in line with the up circuits behind the factory switches.

Edit Should be able to do a single discrete switch to roll them all up at the same time.

Splicing and dicing isnt my forte. Im naturally electic. Seriously. I cant wear watches. Street lights go dark when im mad. Microwaves go boom after a year. Eyes turn from blue to silver when im mad- they are a physical warning to others. So i really stay away from electic jobs.

At first I was like do I want to click this video link lol. It looks like you just need a 45 degree cant on the switches to get good leverage. It's got to be doable.

I know you didn't, but people who ignore me save me the trouble! :like:

So I asked her she confirmed she uses her knuckle for rolling up. She has some pretty dainty hands... she did then ask "Did you find something!" lol

When I see this, I think to myself how does she wipe her bottom after using the restroom?
Hopefully she uses a bidet, because if she doesn't I cringe at the thought of there being no alternative.
