Default Door Wiring (Front and back 4 door) question

I've searched for the last sixty minutes, and haven't found any definitive answers, so here goes. I'm plan on the doorless mod on my 1994 XJ country edition with power locks and windows. But what I need to know is: how many wires run from the body to the doors up front, and for the rear doors? so I can buy correct connectors to disconnect them easily. Figured this wasn't Adv. Tech because I just need to know how many wires run between the body and doors for my year and model. Anyone know this?

There should be a couple harnesses that run from the door to the body. Inside the body behind the panels there should be plugs that you can just unplug.

Yeah, I want to cut them at the rubber boot where they run stock and make disconnects so I don't have to remove the panel every time I want to remove the electronics and doors. But that's Advanced Tech. Just wanted to see if anyone had specifics on how many wires were in the harness, etc.

Id say just buy a bulk pack of connectors and go at it...
Or find someone that would trade your power doors for crank windows... Less wires.
Thats what Im gonna try to do.

I did the doorless mod on my 88 a while ago
All the doors except the right rear had a connector
The right rear had no connector at all for some reason

And as for the rubber boot
Just pull on it
Or pry one edge with a screwdriver
