The lock rod on the top and the actuator rod on the bottom. You can see how it will just hook together and clip back in

Once you decide where to mount the switch you will need to cut the hole in the door panel then transfer the hole to the steel inner panel and cut a hole for the wires.

View down inside door. The rod to the left is to the inside release. The onedown and to the right is to the lock knob. This is where the actuator rod will attatch.

Front door with panels removed. No wonder why these cars are so heavy. Ive never seen doors with full steel inner panels.

On the left is a random 70's GM window switch. Plenty in the yard. The center is a mid 70's and up door lock motor, the righ is a mid 70's and older door lock actuator. Either will work fine they just wire up differently.

Track with new roller track welded on. Make sure you hold it short on the ends, enough for the roller to slip on.

Panels and handles installed. Now dont expect the window to roll all the way down. Alittle less than half is all you get. The earlier series rolled down more. This is in a 72 M-M
