one other thing..
what is your opinion on retrofitting a manual window to electric. would you be better off getting original power regulators from a junk yard or going with an aftermarket kit?
which is more reliable?

thank you

i think the year they changed up is 76 so 73-76 should be the same and 77-87 91 should also be the same

There was no power window prior to 1977 and motors changed in 1981, but the components will still switch on the 77-87(91) setups.
I have converted a few from manual to power and vice versa.
