When i get to the project, i want to have a ultra modern interior and one of my questions is.

if i use a inner door panel from a newer truck (2006+) and (besides the cutting & art work involved to do it)

with the newer truck panels, the location of the inside door handle will be moved

basiclly i want to know if this would be a fairly staight forward project, to connect the old with the new, make the new door handle work with the stock door latch?

sorry if its confusing i did'nt know how to explain it. i have not had my door panels off before so i can visaulize it. are the stock inner door panels cable opperated? in 67-72 trucks?
