Re: Doors - Mix Match of Parts 47-5?

So, I've sourced a set of handles from the local wrecking yard. I can clearly see the re-inforcement plate for the latches and think I'll have to cut a section out of each of the driver's and passenger's door to get them out, then I'll grind out the 48 re-inforcements, weld up the holes, and redrill and plug weld in the 'new' re-inforcements. I know it sounds like a lot of work, but I'd like to have locks on both the passenger and driver's doors and push button latches work easiest with the rotary bearclaws... from what I can tell...
