There's several threads on here about this already, in case you didn't search.

But anyways, i did this swap myself and it was much easier than i thought it would be. Everything inside the door (rail, motor, etc.) will bolt right on. everything is pre-drilled. And the wiring is also very simple. Just has 2 wires conecting both sides together, power, and ground. If you need anymore info just let me know.

Some people just like the convenience of having power windows.

I LOVE them in my daily. Will be converting to manual seat belts though.

In the project car, I'm fine with manual windows.

convinience is another word for to lazy to crank 3-4 times...lol

and atleast CrimsonRockett ur MT seatbelt conversion actually removes weight from the gayness that is the autoseatbelts...10lbs > 40lb

You guys realize that the only difference between manual and power are the motors and a few wires, right? It's *maybe* 7-8lbs added weight, and you can loose that by just taking a good shit in the morning. I know some guys are all about the hardcore lightweight track cars but it's not like you're adding A/C or a power sunroof, it's negligible weight you're talking about.

As for them being more problematic, the S13 regulator uses a cable drive system, both manual and power are known to have frayed cables or broken wheels on the regulator so there's no downside to power. Motors are cheap at salvage yards and easy as hell to come by.
