Power window conversion

Hello all... I just got a 98 camero...and I LOVE it.... have not had a camero since the '80s. One of the things I am not very happy with is the fact that it has manual windows. I would be interested to know if anyone has added power windows to one of this year. If so, how hard would it be? Also, what all parts would I need for it? I am in Okc, so there are several salvage yards here that I should be able to get the window motors out of, but other than the motors, the switches and the door skins... will I need anything else?

Thanks

Patience, luck, and a lot of bandaids.

Oh yeah, and the window, and the entire inside mechanism I believe.

It's not as simple as just a motor instead of a handle.

Did it on my '95 Caprice. Not sure about the glass, but you'll need both motors, reg's, a harness, switches and door panels. Aftermarket kit like these http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...t=power+window might be a btter route.
