This isn't an impossible job, depends more on how deeply you want to go into your wallet and labor----give us an idea of what the finished look would be--factory or acceptable aftermarket added on stuff?

I searched the net and wouldn't after market stuff work? They even have ones with remotes. Wouldn't I be able to just supply 12 volts to the switch. Im also assuming I would need to either purchase new skins or just cut the swithes in. I can't see how this is not possible or expensive to do. Am I thinking this is to simple? I was even thinking on taking the power locks out of my 99 F150 and putting them in. Even my power windows in my 99 are new. The motor went about a year ago and I replaced them both

LLoyd there is a world of difference between your '99 F150 and the 2013 truck.

Again this depends on how deep your wallet is IF you want it done to look original not just cut in, patched together and otherwise cheap and aftermarket.

Best of luck which ever way you go!

What do you mean by no power locks? Is there no actuator or no keyless option on your remote?

Edit ignore my reply didn't know people been replying didn't see it on my phone app
