Anyone have any feedback on these kits? Planning on using on a barracuda vert.

No, but I do have the Electric Life kits in my front windows, and they work very well. The rears are not available for my '70 last time I checked.

I sure would like to upgrade to power windows on my '68 convertible, so watching this thread with interest.

I tried Electric Life and they were aweful. Dropped like a rock and struggle to raise.
I talked to Electric life directly and they suggested I add a helper spring like the stock regulator. I could tell they had heard this problem many times before. I wasn't interested in doing that so I sent them back. It only makes sense, just like a garage door, spring winds up on way down, slowing it down, then unwinds on way up, helping it lift. Even the 40yr old factory parts have the assist spring.

How do the NuRelics look?
