What is the price range for turning manual windows into power windows on a 2003 Chevy?

Answer 1

Several hundred bucks per window. But there is good news. You need to first find out if your Chevy is "set up" for power windows. Some cars have all the "supports put in and the holes drilled" for installation of the hardware, but it was just left off that model. First, you'd be advised to find out if you car make and model had the power windows as an option, and then if your car specifically has places to mount the stuff. The reason this is important is because if you have this as an option for your ride and you have the "ready-to-go" doors, you can try to locate all the drive stuff at an auto wrecker, and this will save you money and give you a leg up with the install 'cause it's all OEM for your vehicle. This could get really expensive as the inner door panels with all the switches may be what you need to make it all look good. Either that or you'll be fabricating mounts for those switches and the motors and drive assemblies. Or your local auto body shop will. A skilled craftsman can make almost anything work, but why not go for a "bolt up" solution if you can? It's cheaper and the end product will be tailor made for your ride. Think this project through. Make a list of all the stuff you'll need from motors to switches to wiring and weigh your options. Do some homework and ask some questions at some auto salvage places. Maybe even at a friendly dealership parts department. Go early before they get busy and take a dozen doughnuts to introduce yourself. Generally, these guys are pretty sharp. They know what's inside your car 'cause they see that stuff all day. Don't forget that there are a zillion auto dismantlers online now, too, as well as places like eBay and Craigslist. Good luck.
