Anyone with a late 1977 had to replace your driver door lock alarm assembly?  My brother needs a replacement assembly, everything for the wire harness to plug into.  I can find the early 77 lock assembly for the fender mount but non of the standard parts stores seem to have the late 77 door lock assembly.  He says the 78 door lock assembly looks very different.  Anyone have a picture of what it should look like?
 
Any help in finding this part or how you replaced/fixed yours would be a great help for him.
 
Thanks y'all

'77 is when they moved the switch from the fender to the door-key switch, so you can bet it's gonna be different than any other year!
Have you tried Paragon, or Zip? How 'bout Letric Limited?
Just some suggestions... Perhaps one of them has a connector/adapter that will allow the use of the later switch with the earlier harness?

AWSOME.......Paragon has the exact part.  Never heard of them but I now have a bookmark for them.  ZIP also has the part.
 
Thanks
