Retro-fit electric rear windows

I've got the opportunity to replace my rear door cards (mine have both have biscuit sized tears and screw holes on the upper padded part).

I have electric front windows but the rears are manual. The door cards on offer are different as in they have electric switches instead of a winder.

Is it possible to retro-fit electric rear windows to my car? If so, is it an easy enough job?

Thanks, Mike

I'm sure its possible - but you'll have to get the electric motors and window regulators (strange name the motor trade uses for the winder gearbox)

Wiring will depend on what the manuafacturer fits to all cars - but at worst you will have masses of wiring - have a look at the wiring diagram and you'll see what I mean. If you're lucky some will be in place.

You can't see the rear door cards when you're driving it - so why worry.
