Ok i have an 06 silverado work truck and i got the manual windows on it and i want power windows and i realy dnt like the door panels i have so i got the oem electric door panels off my friend for 50 bucks the pair now i need all the wiring and the stuff that makes it go up wr can i get that stuff at and who can install???...
I live in bakersfield ca.

 

I wanna do the same thing. I don't like the aftermarket switches so I'm gonna use oem electric panels as well. I'm sure you could buy an aftermarket power window kit and wire it into the factory window switches

 

It can be done, and you have two ways to accomplish this. You can get a COMPLETE harness from a 03-06 truck with power windows and then have the dealer flash you BCM to get the windows and switches to work. Your other option is to get a 99-02 power window switch panel and hardwire the switches to the motors and a good power source and ground. The 99-02 switches are just that, actual switches. But the 03-06 switches actually are not true window switches. The way those work is they send a signal to the BCM and then the BCM actually sends the power to the window motors. Using the 99-02 switches, you dont need to connect to the BCM or get the BCM flashed.

 

03-06 The door modules in each door control the windows and door locks in that door. All you need to do is put the electric guts in the doors and replace the door harness' put in a uplevel BCM and flash it with the VIN of a truck that has OEM windows and door locks.

 

^^ This.

 

What did you end up doing? I have the same truck and I was curious.

 

i have an 06 silverado that is manual interior, i read all the threads except bo clear answer, my scenario is this, i have b driver and passenger door off my other truck that was totaled from the rear, i can just complete swap both doors (powered) instead of swapping the parts, what happens after that?? do the pin plugs just plug in like the others even if it might not work, i know i have to get the bcm flashed but i guess the question is, does any EXTRA wiring need to be ran?? since the 2 doors are OEM

 

Hey, did you figure it out? Im wondering the exact same thing right now i believe there is a wire under dash but im not sure.

03-06 Escalade switches will have express down, but not up. Yes, you can use the Escalade driver side switches, just pop off the rear window switches and use the 2 window trim cover.
