it was pretty easy
what you need is the door switches and or the complete door panels
the window actuators and what i had done was took the harness from both doors this gives you all the proper connectors for the locks windows speakers and mirrors(if equipt)

then to make it easier for me i removed the harness from the fuse box unbolt and disconnect, simple, then unplug the kick panels plugs then remove the whole harness from the one side to the other,i had to cut the harness where it ran under the ebrake cable to the other side(which is ok because you only need 5 wires to the other side), sounds like a pain .. but if the car is gutted its a 5 minute process..

got to the shop

laid the harness out on the floor, then ompared the fusbox connectors to mine and found there was only 8 wires difference in the plugs so i began cutting an removing the stuff i didnt need which was everything that went to the back of the car, all i ended up with was a harness the went from one kick to the other plugged in to the fuse box on either side.reattached by the ebrake cable where i had cut it previous.. didnt even have to add a fuse to the box.. i figured at somepoint the system must be wired for windows somewhere.

pull the door panels remove that harness remove the manual window set up minus the windows. roll the windows down to where you can see the bolts, then use some duct tape to hold the window up

then simply remove what you dont want and reinstall what you do want.

it might sound hard but in total it might have taken me 3 hours to remove all the stuff and reinstall

and yes i am prewired for power mirrors i just have to find some grand am mirrors and im set

plus the door panels had the pocket on them so i could make pods for my 6.5 components

im happy with the whole set up .. havnt had any problems or glitches to speak of

i hope that helps guys.
