Hi mate, really easy job, drop window so it's nearly all the way down, remove door card, remove all bolts holding the manual mech in place, undo the 2 bolts that hold the carrier to the glass, and remove the mech from the door, and bolt the electric one in it's place. You may find that the wiring that runs from the B pillar to the door is not in place, just the wiring for the C/L, if not, it's easy to do, just need to remove the seatbelt mount and remove the trim inside the B pillar, and change the looms into the doors.
Switches are easy to do too, remove centre console, look underneath and you will see where you need to cut out. The wiring to the switches will be tucked down the sides of the transmission tunnel under the carpet.
