well guys, i'm going to convert my alero to power windows.

i've got the window regulator, and the door switches, and door panels.

just the driver side will be done for now since i only have 1 regulator

Dont do it, power windows in the coupe will give you nothing but trouble, my window sash clips have came uglued and have cracked, my window guide clips have snapped, Ive had to replace both regulators, both windows have fell inside the door panell and now one of my switches is broken, so i have to replace that too. I consider you lucky to have manual windows.

And you don't think those issues happen to the manual windows too?

it's done for the most part, but i'll take a picture of the passenger side when I take it back apart.

And green coupe, part of the reason I'm doing this is because the plastic clips broke on my regulator. The only thing I have to worry about now is wiring, and the switches. And this looks much cleaner to me then a little handle. Not to mention I now have map pockets for additional storage.

And a thanks goes to cherington for posting the wiring diagrams. Was a big help
