RS Power window howto?

I have already used the forum search function, however if there is a URL which describes the process of adding power windows to a 2005 RS, that would be greatly appreciated as well. (in that case pardon my inability to search the forums properly)

What will i need to convert my EVO RS to power windows? what parts from a donor car? Can the stock door panels be re-used? Does anyone know of a shop who would take care of the whole thing in Nor-Cal (if it's too much of a PITA to deal with?)?

thanks in advance for your help

hey yes you can do it. you need all the stuff from a evo that has power windows. as what i heard it is a pain to do but can be done also with power locks lol. so if have some wiring skills then not a problem.

maybe check to see if you can use a regular lancer p/w assembies. Just throwing out an idea. Cheaper to get regular lancer OEM equip i would think.

na I got all the stuff coming to me soon.
I found out that the RS is pre-wired to the main harness. all I need to do is run the window/lock wiring from the doors to the main harness


I hope (crosses fingers)
