Adding power windows and door locks

I have a standard 1995 Camaro with manual door locks and windows. I have access to doors from a 1996 Z28 with power windows and locks. I want to add the power stuff to my 95. Is there existing wiring in my 95 that I can tie into or do I need to add under-dash wiring to make everything work?

Power locks would be nice, but I actually prefer manual windows myself. I spent a good amount of time working construction and my first camaro had power windows and if it was warm out we left the windows on our cars open for easy access to tools and all and if rain came in those of us with power windows would have to throw our keys down just so someone could roll our windows up if we were up on a roof or a ladder. That right there turned me off from power windows. and as mentioned the ones on the camaros are a PITA. I had issues with mine as well. My current one has manual windows and it doesn't bother me a bit

Heck, Ill give you my power windows if you send me your manuals. Nothing like worry-free window operation.

Wait till your at the track and do you burn out and the guy says to roll up your windows and they appear to have just gone out. Then you back out of the lane and go park till there fixed.
