Difference between power/manual doors?

I noticed on hawks that they differentiate the manual doors from the power doors. Is this because the doors are different? I have power doors, if I go get a used door, will I be able to swap all the stuff from my old door into the new door if it was a manual or do I have to make sure it was a power door so the electrics will fit.

Personally i have not been inside the doors of the firebird yet, but i have been in other doors of cars, and the brackets inside to hold the electronics for power doors were not in the manual doors. Maybe the birds are the same way, maybe not. Like i said i dont know first hand on the firebird doors yet.

Yes, any '82-'92 3rd gen door will fit. Yes you can swap the power components into a manual door and vise-versa.
