Can this be done on a 85 S10 BLAZER that came with manual windows and locks? If so where do you hook up the wiring to? I want to keep this 85, but I need to get it out of the stone age! Thanks.

you are going to need to get the right kits and funtions to upgrade. yes it can be done, although it will require a basic set of tools and a know how of electrical. i suggest autoloc kits they are really well made and great warrenties. they are kinda pricy though. anyway check them out at www.autoloc.com goodluck

GO to a wreckers and pul the wiring harness, switched, and motors out of ANY blazer from 84-92 the wiring pugs right into the fuse box. you may need to drill holes in the doors to run the wiring. I am doing this conversion to my 87 S10.

i agree with movin2, its a headach, and if your going to do it, take bikerdude's advice, except dont drill, go through the rubber boot thats there

This may sound EXTREMELY redneckish and cheesy, but I was thinking of putting power windows in my truck at one time. But the way I was going to do it was put a geared down electric motor in the door, and make it crank the manual window crank via a chain and sprocket system housed inside the door. Of course I have never actually looked behind my door panel, so I would probably be surpised at the lack of space there is and think it to be less possible than I originally thought.

Just goofing around with ideas (I'm in college for mechanical engineering, which hopefully will make this idea sound less surprising)

Sorry but somebody somewhere already came up with the idea of putting a eletric motor on a manual window crank.I seen these kits in JC Whitney.These motors where put on the window crank shaft on the outside of the interior door panel. :disappoin

Eh, learn something new everyday. That would be pretty ugly being mounted on the outside of the door panel.
