me and my damn questions

would it be easier to swap power doors, console and wring harness or just cut and slpice the wiring for all of it? i always wanted to have the power windows/locks so that i could get an alarm/keyless entry/remote start system on the car, as i worry about it way too much.......and i plan to do this all to it when i have the time/money, right now college is killing my account, so it has to be as cheap as possible if anyone knows the cheapest easiest way? in advanced

Re: me and my damn questions

I dont think swaping doors will be that simple. Even if you find the same color door. The paint could be faded more or less than yours among other things. The window and lock harness is separate from the main harness. I would find a harness and the switches. You could cut your own holes to mount them. I actually gutted all the wiring out of my car except for the window/lock harness. I hooked it up to ground and 12v and they all work just fine.
