Swaping manual doors for automatic

Hey,
I have been lurking and getting a lot of great info for awhile but I finally have a question. I have a base model (03) with manual doors but have found a parts car (also 03) with auto windows and locks. How big of a wiring ordeal is it to swap the power doors for the manual ones and has anyone ever tried it? Thanks in advance for any help.

i am curious about that as well. Just got a very base 07 and wouldnt mind to add the power options to it. If you dont mind me askin...how much will the parts from the donor car run you?

Not sure yet. I am going tomorrow to get the A/C unit for $25 and the owner says no part off the car is more than $50 so I am thinking I can get all four doors for $200. If I can do that or lower it might be worth a shot. Thanks.

Others have asked this same thing, and someone on here has done the swap.

Just make sure you get all of the door parts plus the relays, wiring, etc. that are inside the car. A wiring diagram would be helpful to make sure you get everything and help in hooking it up.
