miata power window motor weight
Since we were discussing the weight of the power window motors, I
decided to go ahead and weigh one since I am gutting a few doors to auction the parts. It comes out to a little under two pounds for the motor alone. So, the power windows are adding about 3.5 pounds total to the weight of a miata if you add the extra wiring/switches and then subtract the weight of the crank mechanism and handle. This is on a 1990 model, which should be the same through 1997. I guess I can live with that..... Pat |

That would seem to be the case, but my metabolism burns food faster than my miata burns gas. 20 years of anti-dieting and I can't put on a pound. I would love to put on about 20 pounds, but I have learned not to say that in public after getting chased by an angry Jenny Craig crowd. Luckily for me, they were very easy to outrun..... ;-) Pat |
