Default Going to Power Windows/Locks

I'm looking at doing power windows and locks in my 2012 four door. I'm swapping my half doors with another member on the forum so I won't need anything in the doors. I've searched the google and the forum and I haven't found the build write up I'm looking for. There's a lot of "I'm going to do this" threads with no conclusion. I'm really trying to find out if this is possible with the parts I have below and if anyone has any experience with the process.

Here is the parts list I put together (put together with help from the guys at JeepsAreUs):

  • POWER WINDOW SWITCH REAR CONSOLE Part #68057597AB
  • Power Window Switch Part #68156217AC
  • POWER SWITCH BEZEL Part #1RP75DX9AC
  • Bezel-Floor Console Part #1UB68DX9AA
  • WIRING FRONT DOOR DRIVER FULL POWER 2011-2013 Part #68066013AE
  • WIRING FRONT DOOR PASSENGER FULL POWER 2011-2013 Part #68066012AE
  • JEEP WRANGLER WIRING PASSENGER REAR DOOR POWER LOCKS Part #68066032AB
  • WRANGLER REAR DOOR WIRING DRIVER SIDE POWER Part #68066033AB
As far as wiring goes I have very little idea where the four door harness tie into the rest of the Jeep. I know I can backtrack the wiring to the source, and I assume that the door harnesses just plug into a higher assembly. I'm trying to avoid any splicing if at all possible. From what I've read already I think I'm already going to have to do some basic wire stripping to wire the power window switch into the actual harness.

My last obstacle is the dealership computer reflash. I called my local dealer and the service guy had barely any idea what I was talking about (which is not that comforting). Is the reflash even a thing, or would I need to do some strange computer swap.

Thanks in advance to all who read through this mess. I appreciate it.

I would think the fellow trading the power doors would also give you the following parts and you would give him the fill items from your dash? (different colors?)

idk, if i was trading someone my doors with power windows/locks, I wouldn't pull that stuff out for them. I'd want to keep my jeep capable of that functionality in case I went back to it in the future....or even just for resale.
