Its easy, if you're done any wrenching its self explanitory. The glass is the same except between coupes and verts.
You'll gain around 6lbs per door when you go from manual to electric windows btw, 12lbs total for both sides.

Its really simple, all you should need is a flat & phillips driver set and a 10mm socket & wrench with maybe a 3"/6" extensions for your 3/8" or 1/4" wratchet.

ok ive taken every thing out of my old door except the power window regulator ....do i just take whole thing out (the arm that ataches to the window or just the regulator thingy at the botom of the door .....
not to thread jack but this is quite related, now on a BASE model, rx-7 the power window wiring is missing from the doors, but are the conectors that the missing door harnesses conect to inside of hte car? or was all the wiring deleted from base models?? reason i ask is i have door hanresses from a diff car but im not sure if they are going to conect to anyhting inside of the car or not....

remove the door panel on any "base model" rx-7 86-88 4 lug base, or a s5 gtu/base, and the wiring for power windows isnt in the doors!!!
its on the sport models which dont ever come with power windows either makes no sense lol
does anyone know if the plugs are under the dash to connect the harnesses??

there is a harness for power windows in the door, but on a base model,from the factor the door harnesses arn't installed!
i am wondering if i take a door harness from a diff car that came with power windows, if the wiring under the dash to plug that harness into will be there or not.
