Question Bear Claw Latches 57-60

I was wondering if anyone has installed bear law latches on their 57-60 trucksl. I would like to see some pictures and maby get some tips on how it was done. The parts that are troubling me are the stricker bolt mounts and how to connect the original outside door handles to the new latch
