-Gray
-Baby Blue
-Black
-Tan

So what wire goes to what?

If you look at the switch, the colors should be
Brown-2 Tan Empty Gray
Brown-1 Black Lt.Blue Dk.Blue
Brown-2 is Driver Window "positive" (motor red)
Tan is Passenger Window "positive" (motor red)
Grey - ???
Brown-1 is Ign switched 12V
Black is ground
Lt. Blue is Passenger Window "negative" (motor black)
Dk. Blue is Driver Window "negative" (motor black)
"positive" and "negative" are in quotes as the motor doesn't really have a positive and negative wires. The current is just reversed for the motor to run the opposite way. As such, I may have the window wires reveresed. If so, they still should work, just opposite the way you press the button. Flip them and it should work as pressed.
I'm not sure what the grey wire is for as it's not in the diagram.
