They work ok, the drivers window rocks a bit as the glass width is insufficient, but they're ok.
Will take a picture next time the door card is off.

I purchased an MGF to use the VVC engine in my Lotus. I think it could donate lots of components to our Midi. I've saved the doors with the complete electric window winding mechanism with the thought of fitting mechanism into a Midas. The MGF door is 150mm wider than a Midas door, so it would shorten to fit inside a Midas door. The added bonus is if you fit the complete narrowed frame you would get the door mirror assemble and you could use the electric mirrors. You would also do away with the quarter light on the Midas door, giving you a more modern looking assembly and IVA compliant, maybe you could adapt the electric locking too. You get the added advantage of using the wiring loom which is already made up for you.
I've also saved the steering column with the electric power steering.
