Switching to power windows.

I bought two doors that are for power windows, locks and mirrors. My question is will I have to switch windows or will the hardware mount to mine? Problem I have is that I had my car windows tinted already, if I have to switch windows I will have to have the door windows tinted and I can only hope they match, or have the whole car tinted again. Truth is I would rather spend the money on some heads. Thanks!

If they are from the same year doors, I'd think they should interchange just fine. What year are the doors from?

Yea, I guess I did leave out some important information...sorry about that. The doors are off a "87" Turbo Coupe.

83-86 and 87-88 are slightly different. I know the window motors interchange, but am unsure of the rest.

what do you want for the manual window hardware?

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

First I want to make sure every thing works out alright before I start getting rid of what I have. PM me, I have a lot of stock parts I will need to get rid of.
