Electric windows are quick to fit if you have the loom in your car to support them, or if your handy with elexctrics and by a thrid party brand.
search this forum for threads with me in them for more information on just how exciting electric windows can be 
BTW I used Cobra retrim material, 2m worth for £80, top stuff and very nice but very pricey!

word of advise, remove the old material first for 2 reasons:
1. it wont stick properly and will lift over a few days.
2. you have to slam the doors to shut them.
on my rear door cards (5 dr) i covered origanal material and had the above problems, on the freont i took off the old stuff and they look miles better. ive got to redo the back ones cos they look awful.

Darryl if you were asking about electric window kits, I got a 2nd hand official vauxhall set - but not a set an in a pretty box with instructions, I mean all the bits ripped out of anyoher car. Mine cost me £135 for the motors, regulators, wiring harnesses, switches and the car main loom, and central locking solenoids and control unit, oh, and a mirror switch 
I got mine from VPSC.co.uk who were very helpful. Other than them I'd recommend asking round all the breakers.
My retrim materila was fitted over my old material, but i got it professionally fitted. Its 'yet' to lift anywhere.
Kris is right, the doors are a much snugger fit into the rubber seal of the doors with extra material on. If you do them yourself take the original off Id say.
