Upgrading door panels HELP!!
Hey everyone, I have a 1987 F150 that is my baby and have been upgrading through the years. I have finally found a next generation set of door panels (92-97) with the higher-up window and lock controls and I'm trying to change it over....BUT!!! My haines manual doesn't have the wiring diagrams for the power locks/power windows and the wire colors (of course) are different. Does anyone have the wiring diagrams for both the 1987-1990 style and the 1991-1997 style? I think the panels were taken out of a '92 specifically. THANK YOU if you can help

if you wait until tomorrow i will take my door panels off and look. I was just in there the other day changing my door handle. I will try to get some pics, but i will atleast look at what color wire runs where.

well thanks for the offer but I don't think it'd do me any good. Heres what I have:
My 1987 window and lock switches wired in to my truck. Has all the wires attached and color coded.
The new '92 door panels complete with switches and about 2 feet of the stock wiring.
SO I have the wiring and can see the colors, but the design of the switch is different, so I cant just pull and plug it in the same spot because the pins have moved AND the wiring colors between the years have changed so I can't just take all the same colors and splice them together........it would take hours of trial and error to get that right with the 10-12 wires (I don't remember how many right now).
BTW I do like your 351W ZF Conversion in your F150. I have it in my '87 and love it

i love my zf, your post when you did yours was a big help. Your post that said you love yours is what bumped me over the point and i was like i am doing it!! lol. But ya it is awsome, mine is kind of noisy though like it is kinda of worn out, i think the guy that sold it to me, lied to me about how many miles were on it, but i dont know. Is yours noisy or anything?
ps after reading through your zf post and knowing ahead of time, i still put the automatic trans starter on it and had to figure out what that noisy was.lol

First try copying the images to your hard drive and then print them out, you should be able to read them once you do so.
If not let me know and I'll do something else.
