My 240 coupe has manual locks and windows, which is no problem, but I've always dug power windows better. I know that it's possible to take out the linkage for the manual from the door (done it before) and replace it with a power window system, and I could probably do it myself.

I was wondering how complicated that kind of procedure would be, and also if any of the parts cars out there have the power door window motor/pulley system for it.

Thanks

As for parts cars yeah they make 240's with power windows/locks. My 89 was switched to power locks and windows by the previous owner. Quite nice,

everything is just bolt on. you will need to modify your door panel to fit the larger switch box. but you will have to run wires and that is where it will get tricky. you could just run the wires to the unfused motors and risk blowing them up. or if you wanted to make it proper there are several spots on the fuse panel for extra wires. on mine there was actually one that had 12v going to it. and you could solder in wires that lead from that to the windows. all in all it would take you about 2 hours. depending on how fast you are at soldering in and how quickly you can wire.
