Nope doors are different size. The wiring will be a PITA if you want to stay stock. The easiest way to wire will be add a fuse box and pull all your hots there. The stock window's and locks are ecu controlled.

Oh forgot, cause I've never seen one in person, but have seen on here that the 2 door 4 runner doors are the same.

I put power locks into my 91 4runner.

They were aftermarket. Took a couple hours per door.

I went with with Commando alarm mainly for the price factor. This has everything you need to convert your doors to power locks as well as gives you keyless entry and an alarm. I have had this kit on my truck for the better part of a year and have not had one single complaint. I am not going to lie, it was quite a PITA to install and took a whole entire Saturday. But the results are well worth it.

As far as power windows go... Personally i think it would've been pretty difficult to install any kind of window actuator in such the small space behind the door panel. That doesn't mean that it couldnt be done though. Here is commando's link for power window stuff: http://www.commandocaralarms.com/power-window-kit.asp

Hope that helps!

I pulled the electric stuff out of the doors I bought (got all the wiring, and the big relay that it uses) and it all bolts up the same as the manual stuff.

all you would have to do is install the componants (new door panels too!), drill holes for wiring into the cab, and then wire the 2-4 clips per door.

Will 2 door 4runner electric doors fit on an 87 Toyota pickup ext cab? If so is the wiring harness on the pickup wired for the electric windows/locks?

Thanks, and sorry to hijack, but thought there was no since in making two threads for similar ?s.
