2010 - 2014 Camaro Window Valet available at RPI Designs

2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Camaro Window Valet

Installation for the Camaro is just like it was for the C5 and C6. It just plugs into the diagnostics port. No wires, no cutting, no tools.

Once installed, the Window Valet™ for Camaro is ready to run. There's no configuration required. And, as always, Window Valet's do NOT reprogram the car's computers.

Description: The Window Valet™ for Camaro provides remote power window control for the 2010-2014 Camaro.

** Moving power windows can be dangerous if someone or something were to become pinched or trapped. By installing this product, you agree to the Terms of Use, Warranty, and Liability Waiver. Never use the remote power window feature unless both windows are completely clear of obstructions.

Installation:
The Window Valet™ for Camaro plugs into the diagnostics port, near the edge of the dash trim. There's no configuration required. Just plug it in! The Window Valet™ for Camaro does not reprogram any of the car's computers. So to reverse the install, just unplug the unit, and the car will immediately revert back to stock. Usage: To lower the windows via remote, press the remote unlock button three times. To raise the windows, press the remote lock button three times. (Or to prevent the car from blowing its horn multiple times, unlock-unlock-lock may be used.) For the features to activate, the buttons must be pressed in rapid succession, with less than one second between two sequential clicks.

Special Window Venting Feature: The window venting feature allows you to use the remote to leave the windows down about half-an-inch for airflow on hot days. To use this feature, simply issue the remote window up command, wait until the windows have been fully raised, wait a couple of more seconds, and then press the remote lock button one more time. The windows will lower just a fraction of an inch.

Note: The Camaro may toot its horn on the second and third remote lock commands even if its horn configuration is set to silent when locking. This is a feature of the Camaro, not the Window Valet™, and is designed to act as a lock confirmation. To prevent the horn from blowing when remotely raising the windows, you may use the alternate window up command sequence: Unlock, Unlock, Lock.

Item # C7V800C Use coupon Code LANA5 on line or by phone when ordering and receive 5% off the listed website price and this item ships for FREE!!

If someone can hack this to make the sunroof open/close also, I'm in. I'm guessing an auto close for the sunroof would require a BCM hack, though.

I bought a Window Valet for my 13 convertible.

Everyone considering this unit should know that it doesn't quite work as you would expect on a convertible. I assume it works entirely correctly on a coupe.

The Valet works fine with the top up. The front windows will roll down and up, and vent. With the top down, the roll-down feature works, but not the roll-up. This is because of a GM feature/issue, but the Valet does not override this.

End result, the roll-up feature does not work when the top is down.

The convertible has 4 windows instead of the 2 on a coupe. Stock, with the rear windows down the express-up of the front windows is disabled. You have to roll up the rear windows before the express-up on the front windows will work. Since the Valet does not control the rear windows, it cannot raise the front windows when the top is down and the rear windows are down, which happens by default when you lower the top.

This is something that I'm sure a design change could address, and would result in a separate unit for convertibles. I hope Top Down Tech chooses to address this issue soon. But as it is now, be prepared for the roll-up to fail when the top is down.

I'm considering buying one of these so that I can park the car in a very narrow storage area and then climb through the window to for exit and entry. How reliable are they? I'm talking 5mm each side of the car using a laser parking aid.

Once the window is up, I would not be able to open the car doors or trunk because of three brick walls. I might not be returning to the car for a week or two each time, so I wouldn't want to lock myself out and then not be able to move the car.

As long as it's plugged into the OBD2 port, it would likely work weeks later without opening the car doors first?

I've bought one, thank you. This will save my ass if I need to park in a narrow garage, easier to squeeze out of the car with the windows down.

Will depressing the inside door lock/unlock buttons have any effect on the windows with or without the car running?
