Power windows/Locks

So the deal is, I am tired of the 5 second hassel leaning all the way over to unlock the door or to put the window down/up. I really want to install power windows and door locks. Would it be easy to just buy the parts and upgrade the door itself or will I have better luck just going to the yards and pulling doors off and swaping them. I plan on re-painting in a few years or so... I have to buy a ****ter before I get the project started. So tell me what you think.

i was the same way as you, tired of that, i swapped my current doors over as they were fine, its really not that hard, you need a big 1/4" rivet gun with GM 1/4" Peel rivets, contact thomas at house of camaro and he'll hook you up with the wiring harness and possibly all the regulators and door lock solenoids, you just drill out the current rivets, remove the regulator from the door and install the power one.
