I was wondering if I was able to swap power window parts into a non power window door of the SAME year? this is obviously because I have different color doors.

Also im willing to pay for this service. I have everything needed.

Car is a 97 civic hatch.

Thnx
Ant.

Yes. Honda builds all the chassis with the holes needed to installed whatever option.
All the holes needed to do this conversion are in the doors now. You will need new door panels if you don't have them already. The door should also already have the power window wiring ran, but if it doesn't it is super easy to do and could be done in an hour or two. I have the wiring diagrams if you need them.

I'm sorry but am unable to do the install as I have TOO much on my plate already.

yes you can swap the power window parts into the same year. everything should line up. question though. are you just doing the power window conversion, or are you doing power locks as well. if your just doing power windowns than youll have to manually wire up power. if you did the power window and lock conversion you could just grab the second part of the harness that runs to the fuse box and plug and play. otherwise youll have to hard wire power to both switches. make sure you run the hot wire from the passenger switch, to the driver switch so that you can control it as well. Its in all seriousness almost easier to just do the lock conversion as well and grab the entire harness.


get those diagrams from the man above, will be alot easier to follow if your not great with electrical work or dont have the patience to trouble shoot and figure shit out.

I think you may be getting in deeper than you want to, this swap requires a new cabin harness as well as the door harnesses, along w/ new door panels and switches lets not forget all of the regulators w/ motors. The 96-00 civic dx is not pre-wired for power windows or locks (putting locks on would require new latches all the way around as well).

yeh, i did this conversion to my hatch. with jdm ek3 panels and switches. i just went for power windows, no locks or nothing else. but. it was a pain in the ass. you have to take the seats, and lift the carpet to run the wires. you start at the firewall behind the drivers kick panel and so on. i was lucky enough to find the whole harness, with the door panels and switches on ebay. i ended up paying 280 for those, then i had to buy the power window relay, which was like 10 bucks. let me know what you have and if you have any questions. another problem i ran into, was that the harness goes all they way to the back of the car, so instead of messing with that i cut my original and the new one, and soldered everything together accordingly. if you have questions, feel free to PM me. ill post up some piks the next chance i get. also, Pm with everything you have, ill let you know is thats everything.

I think the cabin harness even goes into the engine bay to the front lights. I hate it when people order that crap usually takes about 1.5 hours to pull a cabin harness. Let me know if you need one I'll try to pull it ahead of time.

Ur making me kinda nervous lol. Anyways I should have everything needed to swap the doors onto my car, so does that mean I have everything for the conversion?. I have 2 complete n working doors with the harness out the same car. My harness seems to go from driverside bottom panel to fuel pump then to the ecu I guess... does this mean I have everything? Will I have the needed harness n latches? Again I have 2 complete doors.

Also I was always planning on doing the locks the whole time since im swapping the panels.

Thanks for all the responses so far.
