Have a quick question, is it possible to to install power mirrors(aftermarket), windows/locks (from powered doors) on a neon that is origionally all manual? Does a harness under the dash exist for this type of thing, im just curious. It may sound dumb but i just wonder about it.

Your car may or may not have the wires/harness already there. See the post below to see if you have the wiring harness already...
On the front door, either passenger or drivers, locate the rubber hose that wires pass through the car to the door. What you need to do is pull off that rubber hose from the a-pillar. Then, take a flat head screwdriver and pry out the plastic plug that snaps into the a-pillar. You are looking for a bunch of wires, on the dashboard side of this plug that I just had you pop out. If you have what looks to be every pin on the car side of the harness, you have the easy route. If you only have the two speaker wires, you will need to either get a harness out of a car that has the power options, or you will need to run each wire yourself between the doors...not fun!
