stuck door-Need a new rear door panel ['84 5kT]

I still have a problem w/ the right-rear door on the 5kT. I think one of 
the plastic parts broke off, b/c the door lock pushbutton doesn't feel like 
it's attached to anything. And the power locks won't open the lock either, 
so there must be something jammed in the door lock assembly. The pwr locks 
worked fine before, and I think vac. solenoid is working, it just can't 
budge the lock.

So I can't get it unlocked from the inside, unless I take the trim cover 
off. The only way I can see is to cutoff the trim and fiddle w/ the lock, 
cuz the screws look impossible to get to w/ the door locked. Anyone have a 
leather brown/beige replacement door panel for right-rear door? This is for 
an '84 5kT. The family album shows the panel as brazil/sierra leather panel 
# 447 867 212 T MJ1. This part is deleted as of '96...Any info much 
appreciated.

There is a replacement panel added on, but it's only one color...beige or 
brown...then I'd prolly have to change the rest to single-color. Weird 
thing is the replacement panel is only for the right, not the left. Plus I 
really like the two-tone interior.
