It's doubtful there is much of a weight savings in manual windows. Have been told power windows may actually be lighter.The motor is very small. The crash bar does not weigh much either. But every little bit can count.

The doors are long and that piece of glass is a tank. That is where the weight is. See if replacement glass is thinner and therefore lighter.
