hmm... i think though that if you wanted power you can get from donor car. but if hes doing both doors, and wiring, and switches, its not too bad in my mind.

Car: Firebird SSA
Engine: 3.1
Transmission: 700R4
I started out using the kit.

Eazy to install. After a year or so one side started to strip it self out (Plastic lineing). So only one side worked.

One of my friends suggest to go with the factory setup. Because all the holes are in the doors. It cost me $45 per side and $20 for the center console with switches.

If you are handy. Its not that hard. I would suggest kits any more. Check out Power windows 101.

Just my experences.
