can you use manual window regs when converting to elec windows. e.g. will elec motors bolt onto the regs or will i need the elec windows regs aswell?

yes you need the regs and the door looms (if you have central locking the you might have full door looms)

or you can buy cheap universal things off then internet that just connet the motor to the manual winder

That depends how good you are at reading wiring diagrams.
You could swap the interior loom but you will have to take the whole interior out of your car to do so.
It would probably be easier to by a reel of wire and add what you need to your car, it will just be a case of running wires between the doors and also adding some wires to the fuse box, there are full wiring diagrams in the back of the haynes manual.
