Well ya know, some folk like to do things the harder way. He could also install manual window cranks as a bonus.

Those manual window cranks are very engaging. Adds another level of driver experience. The way you can precisely open and close the window to the exact level you like even when the car is completely turned off. Can’t believe anyone would want a less engaging automatic window opener.

I agree. I am thinking about putting one of those handcrank starters on my car as well. Now there is some engagement.

Also, we need to retrofit suspension oiling system like that from russian GAZ-21, for manual suspension and transmission lubrication with pumping button from cabin. Make sure to never park in same place, so that oil spills can be blamed on someone else.
