I'm not sure on the door lock hardware but I bet it would be fairly easy. I've never done that. On the door panels the window crank shaft is the key. The shaft comes in different length and you need to make sure to get a door panel near that year. I think 73-76 are the same but in 77-87 they change to a longer shaft. I had a set of panels Big Red tried to use some 78 model panels on his 75 and the panels stuck out too far from the shaft.
