i have a talon esi with power mirrors and thats it..i want power windows and locks..a bud of mine has a eclipse that was weackd with all the powerd stuff and will let me get what ever i need to have the powerd stuff in my car..can i just take all of the powerd stuff(windows,tracks,ect) out of his doors and install them in mine?

if i could what is everything ill need and where is it?

I know you'll definately need the switch, regulator, and motor. Then just wire it up I guess :shrug

I have done the oem power window/lock/mirror swap.
I had one bad door after an annoying accident so I got two complete door off a 99 eclipse and bolted them on to my car, the wires are in the door for everything to work. It's much easier that way. After you bolt on your new power doors, just buy a power lock relay, a power window relay and you are set, you can buy the relays from Satan. :thumbsup

well his drivers side door has a big dent in it and tha paint is way off so i didnt really want to swap doors.thats why i was asking if i could use his parts..i already have the door panel switchs,and i know ill need the wirein and all the stuff in his doors,but what else?

"just buy a power lock relay, a power window relay and you are set"

couldnt i just use the ones out of his car?

Yup. They are behind the radio

From what I hear our door interiors are completely different and the stock regulator won't mount up correctly. I have no idea if tihs is true or not, it's just what I've heard.

well that sucks,i thought all eclipses and talons came down the same line with everything being the same..

nope all should swap fine. I remember checking part numbers on the regulator and it is the same for 95-99.

I'm not talking about the regulator, i'm talking about the interior frame work in the door that holds the regulator.

I see but my point still stand that all the equipment should swap over. I would trade you my 95 regulators for your 97 so he could use them but they are the same. He should be fine installing them into his door.

Sorry was busy for a few days.......should not be too bad if you dont mind spending an afternoon on it. it is a little bit of a pain becaus you have to work with limited access in the door. You will cut your hands up and prolly bitch up a storm but if you take your time and be patient it wont be too bad. Def worth it the first time you power the door up and roll the window down....

sweet,i should be able to put the stuff together as i have a knack for doing stuff like this,but just wirein the stuff in to the relays or what not is what i have no clue on at this point..if my car does have the wires for this then,when i go to install the relays will there be something that i just snap them into or will i have to jimmy rig something?

The dash harness should be all set for the door harnesses. you will need your buddies door harnesses too. remove your radio and the relays will plug in there, thats it. connect the door harnesses and you should have power once the switches are connected.

Make sure you get the wiring all the way to the door jam, not just inside the door.
