Does the EVO RS have manual windows/locks?

I want to know if the Evo RS has manual windows and locks. I am assuming it does.
Has anyone ever tried to swap the manual stuff in place of the power windows/locks on the RS-II or GSR.
I really dont need the power stuff and would prefer to lose the weight, and am considering sourcing the manual stuff from overseas if I can find out how easily it can be done.

No I am not sure. That is what I am trying to find out.

EVO V RS...what was the weight Claudius...1300kg right?

If you only save the weight of the power windows and central lock, it's not worth the time, but if you remlove everything like air conditionnig, airbag, abs, spare wheel etc, then it will make a big difference.

Time and hassle are not much of an issue. This is my project car, and its main purpose is racing. I wont use it enough to warrant the power stuff, and if I can get 20 lbs of weight savings, then I would like to do it. Only factors would be cost, and if it can actually be done.
Im just waiting until someone will be able to answer the question.
