if you change to electric windows you will need to fit the mechanisms as well which could be expensive, and although not done it myself i'd imagine it to be a bit of a mission

A majority of door cards no matter what spec have push out or at least markings on the back where the winders go so it would be very easy to fit your old winders and just swap the handles over for your old ones

Just drill an adequate hole for the winders and use your handle covers. Will look exactly the same.

If you're near I'll do it to for you.

Meh Derby's miles.

Where the electrical window switches are if it has them, pull that away. That will pull off, couple of screws underneath, possibly have to take the speakers out, I can't remember. Unscrew the lock pull's and then pull the door card from the bottom then eventually up a little and it should come off.
