Power windows Wiring Loom

Because I'm lazy.............. does anyone know whether the wiring loom is there in cars without power windows.
I've got a car with manual windows and I'd like to convert it to electric, but I'm not keen on replacing the whole loom etc.
But if the wiring exists up to the doors, I've got all the parts to fit the motors, regulators, switches etc.
Thanks in advance for any info.

Prising out one end of the rubber concertina piece that are between the body and door will reveal if the wiring is there or not.

Be warned they are a pain to get back in.

I would suggest that its highly unlikely that there will be a wiring loom there, unless electric windows were fitted to the car in the past.

car manufacturers aren't in the habit of wasting expensive materials, IE harnesses for accessories that aren't installed ;)

I might be willing to trade a complete power window wiring loom for a set of manual regulators. ;D
