manual to power windows


Would it be possible to put a power window and lock setup into a 87 manual door? The doors look to be a little different.

You might need the whole manual door panel. Never done it before but i would think you would swap the panels and hook up a few things and be done.

Where are you going to get those motors? And how much are they? Every quote I'd heard for power window motors is extortion.

On topic: Find a buddy with a fox and power everything. Take off his door panels and see where you need to mount junk.

anything's possible man, You just gotta get the parts and have the mindset to do it. I personally found my car because it had manual windows and I won't ever have power windows again because my '93 explorer's windows messed up everytime I turned around.

If the explorer's defense, it was only a Ford .. .

But yes, just do it. Apparently, nobody here has done it, but it's a matter of putting the motors in and running the wires. Do you have the control panels? If not, make your own.

Power windows are pretty nice to have, but with a non powered car, it's better weight wise. Like when they made the notch backs without anything except a 5.0 and 5 speed...less toys = light weight, and we all know what thats good for.
