Power windows Qs, please advise

I have installed an alarm system recently and it gives me an extra option to close the windows, but its a negative wire only.

Can i tap it to the power window motor wire (Go up), and makes it close when i activate my alarm?

Where is the location of the motor? Which wire do i tap into (please state the colour)? Thanks

You would have to use relays.

The factory power window system is a high current positive voltage trigger. A grounding trigger would not work to roll windows up or down (without adding relays).
