    Default Converting manual windows to electric?

    Ok well i drive a Civic with manual windows and locks, and i was wandering how much it would cost and who can convert them to electric? I have a viper alarms system and i need to be able to lock my car, or it would pretty much be useless... so if anyone can help me on this please do. keep in mind i live in Douglasville, west of ATL closer to six flags... so i dont need to be driving too far to do this.. Thanks

    If all you need is locks, just buy some solenoids. If you need both you'll need what Lee said to get... Although I dunno if it applies to the 92-95.

    You'll also have to get a power window control unit.

    Hardly seems worth it, doubt you'll go that route.
