Door Panel Swap

Can later model door panels be swapped into a slightly older truck? I found some mint door panels out of a 1994 and was wondering if they would swap over to my doors(1990). I know the wiring would have to be worked out to the the newer style connectors for windows and locks thats not a big deal though

Going to the junk yard is plan b lol was hoping to find out without the extra trip. Being a bit lazy I guess on that plus I figured someone else had surely done it.

They won't work with the vent window either. On 92-96 it is squared off on the end whereas on 80-91 it has a rounded corner.

The vent windows are pretty easy to find in a junkyard and swap out, if you were interested. Still won't match the dash, but you could make them work.
