After some serious time gathering parts I have completed the installation of powered rear vent windows, and infra-red keyless entry on my Coupe 20v turbo project car. 
I aquired the vent window set from James "SPINK" here on the Forum. He is a wonderful gent who got the set here to me in one piece. I can't thank him enough! He did not have a loom so I used a 4 door saloon loom from a old 1993 90 B4. I removed the rear window child lock-out switch and wires and installed the proper connectors on the ends that plug into the rear vent motors. I also had to add about 8 inch extensions of wire in order for the connectors to reach to the rear motors. All were soldered and shrink taped and then wrapped in black cloth friction tape. The loom looked like a factory piece when completed.
I used "Tonks 4x4" and "Valjo" rear vent installation guides they posted here on the Forum. They are both excellent postings! Thanks to both of you.
The infra-red system I used from the same B4 90 I parted out. I had to do long wire extensions for the door portion of the central locking loom. About 18 inches. No modifications to the rest of the loom. The control/vacuum unit reached perfectly to the small cavity just forward of the right side boot black plastic storage bin.
All the connections were "plug and play" following the S2 central wiring diagrams. Thanks Paul!!
The tricky part was drilling the holes out for the Infra-red sensors on the "B" pillars. Since I could not obtain any photos of the exact hole locations I used my best judgement. When installing the rear vents I removed the riveted B pillars and using the B4 90 B pillars. I stenciled the hole outline to the Coupe's. I then drilled out the hole with a proper sized bit and them finished the detail of the hole with power Dremel tool with a metal cutting bit. Worked great!
Drilled a hole in the Main B pillar to run the sensor wire down to mate with the central lock loom.
I would post pictures but for the life of me I have no idea how to post them on this Forum. If somebody will give me a step by step I will post some!
Thanks to all who helped with there postings here on the S2 Forum!
