very easy to retrofit.
all you will need is:
Window motors/regulators.
wires from the doors to the center console.
switches for center console
door open relay.
window regulators will need to be the same type as the ones you already have fitted. (scissor or cable)

The OE wiring is part of the central locking loom and is fitted in the car underneath the carpets. A 2 door with manual windows won't have this part of the loom fitted however, so it's easiest to get the switches and cut out from a scrapper complete with their connectors, so that you can splice on your own wiring.
