in theory you should be able to just get all the wiring, switches, motors and everything needed to do the swap and it should be able to just bolt right in since it was an option for a stock cherokee, but don't take my word for that

i took the doors off of a laredo and the wiring for the windows is pretty simple to take out of a jeep with power windows and put it in a jeep without, i wasnt able to get the power locks to work

All that stuff just bolts in and is completely interchangeable. Just put it all in. I have done it on the wife's 86
