Power windows harness?? 200 1986

Hi,

My car is a manual windows kinda thing.
I posted a while back about a power window upgrade for the passenger side only. I got some good feedback about a possible way to do it.

However I just went to the junkyard and pulled a full set (I think) power window harness.

This includes (from all that I could see)

1. main control switches for drivers side door handle
2. wires to drivers side motor (& the motor; if I get ambitous I might put it in)
3. wires to the fuse compartment
4. wires from drivers side over to front passenger side with a relay on the way to it
5. wires from the drivers side to the back two doors

Ok, so I am wondering: If I run this new harness, can I just leave the plugs for the back two doors unhooked (I am guessing YES) or will something overload or be uncompleted circuit?

Also can I just leave the drivers side motor wires unhooked and leave the drivers side motor out. (and obviously tape cap those wires so that they don't touch themselves or the car body) I am guessing YES here as well.

I think then I could have the drivers control, function for the passenger door and the passenger control function for the passenger door.
Plus I think then I get the added bonus of the drivers control doing power locks all the way around! (I am unfamiliar with the extra buttons, and assume they are for the locks)

thanks!
