Auto-down Power Window for all windows -- possible???
What are my chances of getting the auto-down (one touch) feature currently available on my driver side window for all four windows ... specifically from my driver side controls. I want to be able to just hit all four real quick and have all windows automatically roll down. I don't care about the up/down buttons on the other respective doors (I don't sit in those seats 
).
Any chance this is going to be a simple switch replacement, or are the four window controls inside the door a single unit? I know I need to drop by the dealership and talk to the shop guys about the electrical guts ... that, and I'll probably hit one or two custom (alarm, stereo) shops. Anyway, I just thought I'd put up this post to see what kind of feedback y'all might have.
Below are two links which should go to the same place (sometimes links work in posts, sometimes they don't). Do you think this is the part I'll eventually need ... provided I'm able to do this without having to get the "Pimp My Ride" guys involved?

It can be done. A friend of mine installs auto electronic accessories everyday, and this can be done by simply installing two modules for the window controls. The last time I looked into this, the modules control two windows only, making two modules necessary. The modules are hard-wired into the harness for the driver's window switch. These modules allow for one-touch control, up or down, from the driver's side window switch. If installed with an alarm, the windows can be controlled by keypad, or made to roll up when the alarm is set. Check out one of the local car stereo/alarm shops for additional info. or help if necessary. LOL

Related question - window operation without key
I want to put a switch somewhere under or in the dash that lets the window switches work without the key - or even better, perhaps power the window switches from the the dome light circuit so that I can put the windows up or down whenever the door is open, even if I don't have the key. That might need a relay to avoid overloading the dome circuit, though. Anyone have any thoughts? (Not trying to steal the thread, but it seemed too similar to post separately)

I'd suspect Gordo wants auto-down on all four to open the windows easily to air out the truck.
I often want to close the windows or open them while the truck is in the driveway or while I'm camping and I don't have the key on me, especially since I can unlock the doors with the keypad.
