Default Power window and locks

I bought my first jeep and it's a sport with manual windows and locks. Is it possible to get power locks and windows installed?

Yes, and the dealer will be more than happy to install it.
A few people have done this.

All them electronic doo-dads ain't necessary! I have a 2-door so power stuff isn't a big issue for me. Plus less stuff to break in the future.

That's like buying a house not wired for electricity because there is less to go wrong. Power windows have been around a LONG time. Engineers have largely resolved the problems of power windows. I've had more problems with crank window than power.
