Default Roll Up Windows using Alarm Remote

I have a 98 accord sedan 4cyl. I bought an alarm with 2 extra buttons that can be used for remote start, trunk release, etc... i want one to roll the windows up and one to roll the windows down.. i guess i need a relay for each.. im wondering if anyone knows the wiring to do this (where the wires are located).. and also if i can use one relay for all 4 windows at the same time.. the only info i got from the install sheet for my car is this...


Window Up D\RED/BLU P\BLU/YEL D\RED/YEL P\RED/YEL
Window Down F\RE/YEL F\BLU/WHT R\RED/BLU R\RED/BLU

thanks in advance..

oh, yeah.. and i dont want to purchase a power window module cuz one module can only roll down 2 windows, or one window up and down.. any other way w/out frying my wiring??

You can a power window module at http://store.autotoys.com in the alarm department that will do 2 windows, up and down (automation module)

I use a pair of DEI 530T window modules for my four windows and one DEI 529T for my sunroof. Most window modules are two windows in one direction or one window in two directions. the 530T is two windows in two directions with a vent feature, if you trigger the up wire and immediately trigger the down wire it will roll them all the way up then vent them(open them like an inch). they also add one touch control to all windows(which is nice because I rigged a little button that I can hit and it rolls all 4 of my windows down and opens my sunroof with the tap of a button) I also put a toggle switch inline with the the trigger wire for the arming rollup so I can disable that. there's some days you just want to leave your windows down when you arm your alarm here's where I got mine from http://caralarm.zoovy.com/product/530T

no the problem with it is it won't know when you're window is up, the window module watches the current flow to the windows, and the second the window is all the way it stops itself, or if someone's arm gets stuck. In essence is watches the torque on the motor. If you did it with relays and some sort of timer, not only would it be cumbersome and a royal pain in the ass, you could risk damaging your window motors, or worse..
