Myles Connoly claims to still have more parts than anyone else. I doubt very
much that he still has a power window "kit". He can be reached at the
following:
235 E River Drive #1201
East Hartford CT
06108

Any car stereo/alarm shop should be able to install a remote trigger for the
doors, as part of an alarm system or just be itself. I've installed an Alpine
8080 alarm in my car and remotely open or close either door. Since they are
still hydraulic, it required a more complicated electronic design, but works
quite well.

Any of the Bricklin parts suppliers listed on the Web Site should have newer
center consoles with the glovebox built-in. Try Myles also (above).

You are not seriously considering painting your Brick with spray cans are you?
Is your car currently all acrylic? It's a lot of work, but you can make the
acrylic look really good if it has no major flaws.

Your local auto parts store has weather-strip adhesive, probably a 3m product.

Again, from the web site:
