Is this too much to spend for Power Windows...

I was trying to sell a complete power window conversion kit on ebay for $199,no bites.I ended up selling individual components.
I had 4 motors,4 regulators.4 door handles w/switches.all wiring and relay.master switch and all mounting hardware.$200 is a pretty good price as the motors alone are worth $100 for 4 easily.
I just couldn't find the time to do the conversion.Besides I can see me yelling at the kids because the window didn't work properly.At least with manual windows you know they will work all the time,like when you're at the drivethru and you have to open your door to hand the guy the money;<}~
Having removed a complete system from my '84 GL parts car i know how much work it is to install.You need to pull the seats and carpet to run the rear window wiring.The right window wiring and relay are behind the dash as well.
You also have to remove the fuse panel and try to cram the wiring thru a little slot to get it into the driver's door.Have fun,it's a knuckle buster for sure.Just getting the regulator with motor attached thru the opening in the bottom of the door can be a challenge.
