If I understand you correctly I'd say DEI 530T and accord trunk actuator.

Re: switching to power windows and trunk?

It allows you to control your windows from an aftermarket two-way remote, for example. I think that's what you were asking about.

Re: switching to power windows and trunk?

Dude, I've tried the power window conversion, it's a no go. I have a thread on it here somewhere and ended up giving up on it. You'd need the window regulators and actuators plus all the mounting hardware and motors for inside the door. Then the bracket with all the switches for your door itself. But then where to you plug everything in? The wiring isn't the same, you'd have to run fresh wiring right back to the fuse panel and not sure where from there. If you can explain it to me a bit better it might help since I really don't know where the wires would go, but as far as I can see, it's not possible without a lot of money.
