i have installed stock sedan civic power windows in my car works great, use the search function to find the how-to .. search for "civic lx power windows" or something like that.

the spal kits are very nice, i do however recomend the upgraded motors. the hardest part of the install will probably be running the wires into the doors. goodluck

Spall has a kit the places the switchs over the window crank post, [ to hide it] have you though about just getting a set of doors with the power windows in them from the bone yard, they would have all the switchs and harnessing in them, I would evan take the plugs inside the car that the door harnesses plug into, so wireing would be easier 94

unlike the 92-95 civic hatchbacks, i don't think EF's can swap out door panels from cars like the ex and so fourth, i think the only civic that had power windows for the 88-91 was the 4door ex civics

I just put PW in my 91 Si about a months ago using 91 EX motors and scissor racks. Install couldn't have been easier But like stated the wiring is the hardest part. But for the switches I used some from an older acura legend and put them in the factory cut outs in my integra console. Now I'm just going to go get the bottom half of my door panels recovered to hide the empty crank holes
