Thinking of going to manuel windows and locks. Do I need different doors or can I just swap the internal parts? And is there any way to make the hatch manuel close instead of it being pulled shut electricaly? Thanks

Re: Doors
The doors are the same you'll just need to swap over all of the necessary hardware. I know this from experience, as the replacement doors for my car were manual and I just swapped in all of my power stuff. There is even a rubber plug for the wire harness cutout in the front of the door. As far as the hatch goes, I think the manual latch has a different bracket welded to the body, but I am not 100% sure about that. If your doing this all for weight issues, you'll only be saving about 5-10 pounds, as the manual regulator weighs alsmost as much as power unit. Hope this helps!

Well, I already deleted the a/c, heater, radio, wipers, power steering, rear seats. The car is apart and ready for the rotisserie now. I just figured less wiring when I put it back together.

Yeah, I guess it wouldn't make much sense to have power windows and locks and nothing else!
