Convert from Manual Windows to Power Windows
I'm in the middle of a rebuild project and hoping I could find some help here. Both doors on my 88 F-150 Custom had to be replaced. I used donor doors from a 89 Lariat that had power windows. All the door wiring is intact to where it is supposed to plug into the wiring harness under the dash. However, since the original truck didn't have power windows, I don't have the harness to plug into.
So would it be easy to pull this harness from another truck or simple enough to wire up using just the wiring diagram?
Let me know your thoughts.

This is what the original harness from an 88 looks like if that's any help (it's reversed in the pic).
That small plug is where the power feed came from. It plugged in to the main dash harness somewhere near the steering column. You can check if you have a plug for it on your dash harness.
The whole door harness was attached to the firewall just below the windshield. Couldn't get at it till I took the dash off.
That harness is hanging in my garage, if you need a better pic let me know.

So does anyone happen to have an idea what years those harnesses happened to be the same? The doors were off an 89.
I'm still kicking myself for not taking this off my donor truck.
