It is kind of a weird system, the driver side window motor just uses power and ground through the switch but the passenger side uses an up relay and a down relay. Here are the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works, where you get power from in the fuse panel and what wires are grounded. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes.
