Power window compatability

I am interested in putting power windows in my 72. I have seen the kit at LMC which seems inexpensive. Anybody have success with this? Will a 73-87 kit work? Thanks in advance.

DO NOT ORDER. I have that kit installed and have nothing but trouble for the last 5 yrs. The plastic gears wearing out are the main problem.

I ordered this kit from A-1 that should arrive tomorrow:

electric life offers a kit, that looks like it has OE looking regulators, and delco motors? I have not used one, but looks like good stuff

I have the A-1 kit in my 70 and love it. Easy install and trouble free for a couple years now
