Manual locks and windows to power conversion

[88GMCtruck]

What do you mean they are all scare?

88-89 switches are all black rectangular.
90-94 base switches were grey rectangular.
90-94 silverado/sierra switches were grey rounded.

All the switches use the same wiring and plug.

lil help

Im doin the same thing, but I have a 98, 2 door. I have both door pannels and all the motors. ( my door handles are shaved and I am primarily interested in the windows) But the wiring harness I have is the victim to a hack alarm install or somthing and the driverside is all jacked up. Does each window have a regulator? or would this be a 4 door wiring harness and the regulators be for the front and rear? Im having hell tracing these wires out, can any1 help?

Alright, so i did this conversion in my truck. i had many questions in the wiring and buttons and what not.
basicly, i got a 1990 chevrolet sport, but came with manuel locks and windows, of course...
I took the harness out of a 1989 but couldnt find the releys, so with reserach and questions ask, weeks later, i found out...

1988-1994, does NOT have releys.

after that, i was wondering about the buttons, my buttons were shoot so was wondering about the ovall and square buttons, 1988-1990 (dont take my word on this, i think thats what it is) had squares ones and 1990-1994 had ovall ones. I think, 1990 and up might have had square ones i nthe lower end models. so you can take the outer shell of the ovall or square one and put the inner guts inside.

here are pictures for reffrence... hopfully helps someone out in the futur

How hard was it to take the dash apart? and how long do you think it took you to take the dash out and apart? Did you have to take the steering column out? ... Thanks

It's definitely worth taking the column out to do this job. It takes about 20 minutes to remove the column, versus trying to work around it. You have to drop it to remove the dash anyway. A bracket for the dash is sandwiched between the column, and the column support.
The dash itself probably takes a half our to remove, provided you know what to look for.

I did mine without taking anything out to be honest. I just found a new way to run the wire through that was easier and faster. All depends how "stock" you want it. Or how clean you want under your dash.. The way I did it, I was able to tuck my wires and zip'tie them to still have them clean.
