Default Power windows

A question for the masses, has anyone converted manual Windows to power windows on a 2013 JKU? And if you have, what kind of kit did you use, where did you get it, and what was the ease of installation ? Thank you in advance!!

Id like to go the other way. I live up north and windows tend to freeze and its hard on the power windows. Especially something like a jeep that might see a lot of mud and water and then sit overnight and freeze. Wish mine were manual.

Wish mine were reversed also. Less electrical, less possibility of issues down the road imho.

yup while were at it they could ditch the power mirrors too. Just more expensive when you bust one. sure wouldn't have ordered those either if buying new.
