Here's a pic from the listing, looks identical

Yup that's the same type of kit. $90, not bad for 4 power window motors, switches and a free power lock kit. The brands I installed a couple years ago were different, but the same basic idea. Quote:

Didn't take any installed pics, but they were super easy to do. Basically the splined part slips over the area where your window cranks bolt on. They come with an assortment of adapters to mate up with any window crank, and come with an assortment of caps of different sizes to hide the hole after. The kits come with little brackets to allow you to screw the power window motors to your door panels, so you just have to drill a couple small holes. After the door panel is on, you would never know. What I've heard some guys do is shim the manual window regulator to push it in far enough so that you can use a power window type door panel, thereby not needing the plastic caps. Not sure how well that would work but it's an idea. Also you don't have to use their switches, I used factory switches when I did the install.

On my charger, I see no issue with a cap over window crank...there's already a cap for non remote mirros...which I kept after putting in a remote mirror...
