Default what's up with my windows?

Hi- ( I have a '95 audi 90)I hit a deer in the fall and had a few major problems as a result. The only one that is stll a problem has been a mystery to every mechanic I have brought it to: At first the windows started only working once in a while (electric windows, either they all worked or none did, including sun roof). Sometimes if I went over a bump they would turn on or off and slammin the passenger door would sometimes get them to come back on -this made me think loose wire (there was some work done on my fuse box) makes sense, right?...but no, I had it checked out. Now they dont work at all, but my mirrors still work (buttons located on same console, may mean something I dont know). Anyway, if anyone has any ideas or has had this happend to them I'd love to hear some suggestions. I've brought in in to an Audi dealer and they basically said they'll have to rip the car apart. My only hope is to tell them the max. amount I can spend and they'll work for that long-there's gotta be a better way (right?)

Default Hmmm, hook it up to ESP computer so that on cornering,

Outer windows open and Inner Windows shut. That would counter center of gravity causing body roll on hard cornering

That or just remove all glass. Extra weight anyway
