Default 50/50 power windows vs manual

I got a set of power windows for my chevelle with everything need to install in my chevelle. These are factoy A-Body power windows but I will need new rollers and to clean everything up and test all motors. I am debating to install them or stay with the factory manual windows that came in my car. I do have new door panels to install so this makes it hard to decided in a way to cause there is no turning back then. I wanna know what you guys think stick with what works best (manual and hardly ever break) or Power windows that are nice but add weight and could possible cost me in the future. I am at a 50/50 here still guys please give me your input!!!! Thanks Brandon

Power windows are a nice thing to have, but I will not be installing them on my car. Just not worth the extra stuff.... If they dont bother you know then I would not even think about it. If you do most of your drivng alone then thats someting to think about, if you alswasy have someone with you them that sometign else.

What you should do is put in the power windows and rig the stock window crank to the power window switch so when you push it up or down, it works the windows.

I always though that would be cool.

They make something like that already Trey I do not remember who but I did see it in a mag or on the net a while back. I am sure someone here would know who it is actually.
