The window stops when you release the button, it's when it's reached 
the closed position and you hold the switch on alittle longer, you 
get a 'click, click, click' sound from the motor trying to continue 
to turn, on most cars there's a device or contact that shuts the 
motor off at it's extreme position, doe's the Delorean have one,

also both Solenoid's still seem to work in a fashion and I was 
wondering if I needed to do anything to keep them this way apart from 
clean the rusty earth contacts, I read on the DOC tech page about the 
Solenoids, do I still use them in their original state without any 
alteration (been working fine for the last 20 years) or do I need to 
get them modded to be safe.

by the way, do you think I've got all the parts for my switch (rear 
window), I thought there must be another part in the switch rocker or 
extra spring somewhere to spring the return?

anyway thanks again,

Regards
