I plan on converting my manual door locks, windows, and side mirrors for power door locks, windows, and side mirrors. have a 90 240sx fastback.
I'm just wondering if I needed anything else before I start on this project. I have both power doors with the pl,pw, and side mirror. I plan on just switching doors. Is it as easy as that (switch doors, connect wires)????

not quite you need to get the power relays . The job is doable , I am doing it and my friends have done it but you have to have a grip on wiring . The easiest way to do this would to be to find a wrecked se in a yard and pull out its interior harness complete. replace your interior harness and then everything would be in the right place and it would be plug and play.
of course some people feel thats a lot of work. Its up to you either way it can be done it just takes some time. Though getting the doors complete with wires and guts does make it easier as well turning it into a straight wire job.

So you want to go the PW route?
Are you thinking of selling your manual door panels? I'm looking for a set in black that are clean. I got a set for my car, but the driver's side has a large chip in it. Or would you sell certain little pieces from the door panels that aren't applicable to the power ones? (Aka - window roller, or the handle/cups --- power windows have their switches built into the cups of power door panel trim)
Anyways, just thought I'd ask since a lot of people want power over manual and yet no one has manual door panels for sale.
If you decide to get rid of the panels or individual pieces, let me know.

Good luck w/ your install!!

Once I do install the power doors (need to get doors from my friend and interior harness first) I do plan on selling the manual drs or part it. The drs I have are burgundy and there's a small rip on the driver side door panel. Other than that the doors are in good shape no dents and dings. I'll let you know when I stall the power drs. See if you're still interest then. I'm also from the bay area (east bay).
