Frt dr only manual swap - issues?

So I'm going to be converting my XJ to manual windows shortly. I was wondering, if I swap the fronts only at first, will I loose the power window function of the rear doors? Or do I need to swap those right away as well? My youngest isn't big enough to reach the door cranks yet but can manage the power up/down button.

And would it be easier to swap the whole door or swap just the needed parts from the 97 (sport) manual doors into my 00 (classic) power doors?

Thanks
Dave

All the controls run thru the drivers door first.
 
OK, I have power to the doors bridged before the door from back when the lockout did the usual failure thing. I've since fixed the switch panel. Would jumper in power for the rear door at the front door switch panel connector fix it?

It's defiantly easier to change the regulators than the doors. Took me about 20 minutes per side to convert from power to manual windows. Took longer to locate and cut the door panels for the cranks.
