This is really not hard to do. The regular cab will most likely not have the connector in the drivers side C pillar for the positive wire for the switch but any (ignition on run) power source should work fine. After that you just find a good ground location for the other wire for the switch and then run the two wires to the window motor and then run the illumination wire for the switch and your done. I tapped into the small LED light in the overhead console that illuminates the center console/jump seat for my illumination. You will need to purchase the repair connector kit for the window motor if you don't have a pre existing harness and need to build your own. The part# is Mopar 5161926AA. This will come with the correct connector for the rear window motor. The connector for the power slider switch is not available from everything we have been able to find. The best way to get the connector is to purchase a used overhead console from a 13 to 18 ram with the rear window switch that still has had the wiring cut and the pig tails are still attached. This is what I did and then I just built the harness from there. I sold my stock overhead console and it was a wash on price. I use mine mostly in the spring and fall because I like the windows down and it stops the buffering and lets the air flow through the cab. These are some pics of the motor and how I routed the cables and wiring when I did my install. You will also need to get a couple of C nuts and two matching bolts from your nearest hardware store to mount the motor to the cab. Since it appears that the regular cab trucks were not offered with a power sliding window you may need to drill the two mounting holes but that shouldn't be that tough to do.
