You are going to have to run the wiring yourself off the switches.

Re: manual to automatic? help please

When I upgrade my '81 tp PW and PDL I just found a good set of power doors from a suburban and had them painted when I had the rest of the truck painted. ... after reading your post again, all you need to do is changed the doors and the wiring harness for the doors. You will need to drill out the rivets in the door grommet, but everything else should just unbolt and bolt right in.
