I notice our cars are the same spec -albeit mine is a bit earlier - Trikey was going to convert my manual winders to electric for the rear doors - only to find when stripped down there was no loom from the main loom for electric powered windows - he had never seen this before so keep fingers crossed that you have the required loom.

It’s the wires from the body control unit to the plugs in the B pillars that were missing on Martins car not the door looms.

you will need to remove one of the rear side C panels. Be careful not to pull a wire off the heated rear window. Not sure but in the boot there are 3 nuts or fir tree clips under the parcel shelf that need to be removed.
Not sure because it has been a long time since I did it may be unbolt the centre seat belt.

Getting the parcel shelf out and a new one in takes a lot of care and patience so take your time. Towards the off side under the old parcel shelf should be a 2 wire plug to fit onto the sunblind motor.

Behind the air con unit wrapped in a bit of foam you may find 3 plugs. The one you want is either green or black, I cant recall.

I am sure there are other instructions I have forgotten but hopefully someone else will add them.

Have you searched the how to section to see if there is already a write up.

Easier with the rear screen out I'm sure but that is going to the extreme
