420A 2gNT Door swap to get power windows?

[Cfrakes]

I have a Eclipse RS with manual mirrors windows and locks.
Can I take a door off of a Eclipse with power everything and swap it in? If so what all do I need to do the swap? Power mirror control?, a door lock/unlock receiver?, etc.
Thanks.

I think you'll find that the wiring is in place for your RS to accept power windows and locks. Many manufacturers install a standard wiring harness to all vehicles and any unused portions (seat heaters, power windows, etc.) simply go unused. Open up your door panel and check to see if the wiring connectors are there for the power controls. At a minimum the wiring pigtails should exist for the new door's wiring to connect inside the dash.

For the door, upon confirming the wiring is in place for an easy swap, all you'll need to do is swap out the doors, complete with the control switch panels, and plug it in. You will likely have to add the fuses/relays to the fuse box, but again the fuse boxes are universal and so you'll just have to plug in the appropriate fuses/relays into the vacant spots in the fuse box.

As to power windows, that switch is on the dash. Like with the door, the wiring is likely there just taped up and out of the way unused. You should be able to remove the mirror switch from the donor car and swap it into the space in your dash.

Make sure you remember to swap out the door lock assembly, otherwise you'll be using two different keys to operate the car.
