Barney you're my new best friend.

I was able to tie into the factory 30 amp circuit breaker and then made my own harness from one side of the cab to the other. It works exactly like factory, except I don't have the "auto down".
It wasn't that hard, one day installing the regs and motors and another weekend running the wires. all this was done in a county campground.

Barney,
I have a 2004 F750 XL. I recently purchased 4 doors w/ power accessories off a guy. I plan on bolting them up and need some advice/help on what the easiest route I should take. The wires are cut at the door boots on the rear doors and the connectors to the power accessories were unplugged from inside the front doors.
Door switch has controls for power window, locks, and mirror.
Thanks in advance for your help.

It's not that bad if you have some wiring patience.
I ran all new wires for mine. Put switches in center console.
I didn't have patience to wire the factory switches, but if I were to do it again, I would invest the time and do it differently.

Thanks for the update UNTAMND. My truck has turned into a sorta show truck so I really want to use the factory switches already on the doors.

Thread is something like 6 years old, bfife hasn't posted in quite some time, same for some others who participated in that thread. I wouldn't expect responses from them but hey, you might get some. I'd say best to start your own thread on it.
