It will bolt right in as long as it is from the same body style, i.e. hatch to hatch-
coupe to a coupe. You will have some left over wires but just cap them or plug them and you'll be good.

Why do you want manual windows?

Probably because the electric one's are prone to getting stuck, are heavy and just an overall pain in the ass.

i think the manual doors are actually the same weight/slightly heavier as crazy as that sounds

You want to save some real weight? Take out that huge cross bar on the inner shell. But to answer your questioned you can and all hardtop door are the same so don't go looking for a coupe only or hatch only door.

I'll but the power door harnesses if you get them out without cutting them. The connector is under the dash.
