By the way the doner car is a mate of mines car that he wrote off... he said i need to let him know what i need so he can take it off the car.... as the car is at a mates garage quite far from where i live and i can't get to the car...

manual windows have holes in the door card for the winder...electric dont
I believe you can get a stopper though to fill the hole

Have a look in the tutorials section, theres a guide to see if you need the interior loom (BIG BIG JOB).
If you dont (sounds like you dont if you have central locking!) you need the door loom, electric motor/runners and the door card so there isnt a hole for the window winder.
Oh and the switches with surronding plastics

People mention this big big job if theres no loom, from what i've seen one guy made it look like a big big job and everybody else does it easily since all you need is a few wires.

It took me around a day to identify the wires and another day to fit the doors and wire properly.
Only problem i had was i couldn't get the passeger mirror working but its not part of the mot
