Default Window seals or newer doors.

Ok so my 88.front doors leaks air water and everything from the windows and door seals. My door locks aren't matched. My mirrors are missing. Do you guys think I would be ahead to swap in some 97+ doors?

Even if you get power doors you can always just switch the glass and regulators out.

The windows are different sizes. Is there a way to wire up the power on the doors?

Not positive but I believe all xj's are wired for power doors/windows some just aren't hooked up. Look in the door jam/wiring area to see if you have any plugs laying around.

You can take the glass and vent from the 88 and install into the 97+ doors. I'm not 100% on that put pretty confident. Afterall the door is the same size and shape if not you wouldnt be able to swap them out either.

If I were to go to that trouble I might as well rebuild the doors I have.
