I thought of making a mechanism of using 80's style GM chrome switch inside of a bracket inside the door, or a using newer style rocker switch with a lever attached to the window crank to rock the switch, plus adding stops to keep the lever over the switch and springs to keep it centered, in keeping with being "on the cheap"

I just got my welder and might try this.

Nice!!! I was thinking along those lines but had not gotten that far.
