I might be wrong but it looks to me that they are manual unless you pay an extra $300 for the power regulators.

Download the PDF instructions through this link above. It explains how it installs. Can use either manual or power windows. They sell an aftermarket kit to switch to power windows also.

I installed a set of one piece windows a few years ago and you should be able to use manual regulators I used the original power regulators. The only problem I had was the window hung up on the front of the doors where the hinge bolts are so they wouldn't roll down all the way. They stuck up in the opening about five inches.

I'll will let y'all know when I am done, i read it takes a while to get the kit in so hopefully it won't be too long. By the way it sounds I'm gonna need to get me a 18 pack of beer and just tackle it and keep calm

Besides the install issues..... I've heard the biggest issue w/these is the glass moves around ALOT unless all the way up or down. Movement = noise...

I have a set in my truck. It took a long time to fit the windows but if you take your time it will be worth it. The only thing I don't like is the window rubber they give you with the kit. I don't think an 18 pack is the way to go with this install.
