Default line lock release & auto window

my dad's car should be ready to run single digits and still has the power windows. i was wondering if you can set up the power windows to automaticlly roll down when the line lock is released.

it would be similar ro how rob globo has his car. (orange 4th gen camaro which ran orlando world street nationals in heavy street)

Why would you want to race the car with the windows down?

Get yourself a DEI 530T Window Automation module. It will allow you to trigger an automatic roll-up, roll-down, or venting of both windows. It's designed to work in conjunction with an alarm system but it merely relies on a pulse on a trigger wire to activate its functions so you could provide that pulse from a switch or any other source.
