You will need the following items for the power window install.

*Window regulator/motor assemblies from each door
*Both door wiring harnesses
*The chassis floor harness
*Both door panels with switches of course


Since you are already doing the main portion of the work you might as well do the power locks and mirrors as well. All you would need to add are the following.

*Door lock control unit
*Both lock/actuators from each door
*Mirrors
*Power mirror switch on dash

I believe that is all I needed when I replaced mine minus the fuses in the under dash box.

It's not that hard really. Just requires patience.

well, cuz you said "it seems very hard"
and then he disproved your statement be exclaiming that it is "not hard" and rather you simply need "patience"

hahaha, I honestly don't know, I just said that because I haven't said "OOOOWNED" in a while, and I needed to say it to the closest event that might even remotely resemble a situation in dire need of the expression.
