Default Power window to manual

Anyone ever converted from power windows to manual windows?. What's needed?. I'm assuming I'll need the regulators and door panels?, anything else?

That's funny manual windows. I have never even seen one until my dad bought a 89 notch back it has manual windows. Kinda weird I wonder how many mustangs are like that. If you can find the parts go for it

You need the regulators, you can just cut a whole in the door panel for the handle, you can get manual armrest of block off the switch plate. Let me know if your interested cause I have both sides manual regulators I was gonna get ready to sell.

My power windows work perfectly fine, I just hate power windows. Secondly, this is a street strip car, and I want to shave as much weight as possible. I'm keeping the AC, so I'm reducing weight wherever else possible. I have a second set of power doors that I will be converting to manual, and I'll store the original power doors in my shop.
