will older style door handle fit an 82 door?

[vince311]

I've got an 82 SWB. It currently has the stock door handle, but has an older style door panel. To say the least, the door handle/door panel combination looks odd...and some functionality is lost.

Question is: Can I replace the 82 interior door handles with the older style door handle? Specifically, will they bolt on using the existing hole pattern?

Here is a link to the older style handle, for reference: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=250295837784&rd=1

If you are using 77-80 door panels they will work.  The inner handle mounting never changed, just the style of how it looked.
