Never offered from factory that I know of.

Pics might help.
 
Do you have a B, E or C body? They would be the only Mopars of that vintage that might have power windows.

Those are the same switches my RamCharger has, so either it’s some crazy rare option or transplanted from another mopar. I’m interested to see underneath the panels now
 
The power windows were added by a previous owner. Never factory. Curious to what it looks like inside. Do they work well???

Those are factory P/W switches 1969-up style. The two gang switch I think first appeared in a 73 Charger S/E possibly? That didn’t have rear side windows that rolled down.

The door speaker grille is an aftermarket piece from the early 70’s.
 
I believe it was a dealer option through direct connection mopar

I don’t believe so.

Chrysler Dealer accessories catalog and parts are different than Direct Connection parts. Two separate groups.

Not offered in Dealer Accessories catalogs.

I have almost all the 73-current Direct Connection catalogs and I have never seen a kit.

I seen a old add for a kit a while ago for b body cars when I was looking for a replacement switch. Wich they wanted 130$ for

B-bodies were offered from factory with Power Windows. So there will be service kits available. In most Mopar (if not all), the entire regular and scissors mechanisms are different for power window cars.

A-bodies were not offered with factory power windows.

Agree Autoxcuda , but Damm!! If they were offered ,this is probably what the option and switches would look like!
With new door cards, it would look like a factory install!!

I agree.

Mattmoto411’s Duster is a very clean looking install. Really nice.

I would like to know how well the window’s work and what it looks like under the door panel and inside.

I’d really like to convert my 1968 Dart Conv to power window with a factory looking install.

They work just fine like any other old mopar windows. Other then the switch being temperamental on the drivers side . I have never had the door panel off for any reason yet . So if I can get it off without f ing it up to much I will post a pic
 
At least they used Mopar switches.

Does the car have a fender tag?

@66Dvert has a nice write-up on converting his 66 Dart convertible to power windows. I am doing the same conversion to my 65 Dart panel wagon.

just take a spare set of manual regulators and remove the crank part (careful with the darned spring) make a template of the 3 bolt holes for the window motor, I've used any year motor that has a gear and not the cable, from 62 to 99 so far car or truck the gear is the same as the power window gear. temp tack weld it on and check that it'll clear the innards and the glass. BUT the rear windows on the convertible 66's are a *****, I had to re-engineer then by actually turning the motors from the inside to the outside and cut some sheet metal , so not a real clean install. But they work and can be done(TIGHT)
