The plug in the door already is a 4 pin plug with two wires for the door trigger the outside two are for the doorlocks. I added the factory actuators to the lock assembly. All you need to do i strip a 10-12 gauge wire back the length of the plug plus a lil feed it thru and fold it over to lock it on the plug. I would fold one wire one direction one the other. When say enough i mean just enough to lay it flat not to where it folds over the sides. Use some tape to affix it to the trigger wires and wire it up to five wire relay on alarm.

I was hoping that my existing wiring would work and I would just need to plug in. The newer harnesses have another wire pinout for the power mirrors, right?
Is the plug different for the power lock switch on the newer panel? When I replaced my passenger side panel the power lock switch was built in. Is this not the case on the newer panel? I know the physical switch is a different orientation (horizontal vs. vertical) but I thought maybe the underlying switch would be the same. Let me know, thanks.

The factory uses the can bus (comp) for door locks so i had to wire it to 5 wire relay and alarm. I will ask my buddy if the 07-10 door switch is same as 11. If not you might just have to get door panels without factory switch and modify the panel to fit the older switch.

Handles showed up today. They appear to have the same footprint and connectors for the cables. I'll complete this install with photos on Saturday!!
