Wireless window control with fob

Other Hardware Sensors
1

Hello. I'm new here and know very little about programing, but I have a project that seems pretty simple and straight forward.

I have a 1991 Dodge Shadow Convertible that I want to install some kind of mechanism on for opening and closing the windows to clear the top seals when I use the doors. I have an Arduino Uno, but I need some kind of wireless fob to activate it. All I need is: press one button, activate a relay, window goes down some. Press the other button, activate a relay, window goes up.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a cheap wireless transmitter (preferably with a fob), that could be powered by the Arduino? The setup doesn't have to be clean or pretty, as long as it's simple and it works.

Thank you, the M4 rf receiver seems to be what I need. It says it is powered by 5V supply, but since my car is 12V would i be able to use the Arduino as a 5V power supply and pass 12V through the receiver like a switch to power the relays, or would I have to activate the relays with 12V through the Arduino?

There all sorts of remote switches on eBay
