Auto electrician should be able to do it all for you. If you want to DIY you'll need all 4 power window motor and regulators, rear switches, centre console switch and 4 door harnesses that go from the car into the door. I'm pretty sure the VT's came with all the harnessing in the car ready to go its just at the doors you need to add in the harnesses.

to do it properly will be a harness swap. doing on a budget will require at least the doors and interior switches.

Pretty sure some VT's did already come with the right harness in the car didn't they? Some did some didn't?

pull the centre panel out around the gear stick - the harness wont be there.

We do them at work - you're looking at ~$440 pet two doors inc. installation.

I have a VT s2 acclaim. when i was doing the speakers in the door i realised that all the harneses where there throughout the console and doors. just needed switches, switching relay for fuse panel, regulator, and motor.
