Default HELP! Im trying to put 98 xj doors on my 89 xj. And nothing matches up...

I have a 89 cherokee.power locks,windows,and mirrors. I just got 4 better doors off a 98 cherokee. Also all power everything. But they cut off all the plugs,so i also had to eliminate my plugs as well,and now trying splice every wire together.but none of the wires are the same color as the ones that went to my original doors..does anyone have a list of the two and their roles? Or a diagram? Please???

89 might be different colors then 98. Normally 97 to 2001 are same. Then 80s to 96 are same. Not 100% sure just keep that in mind

Have you test fitted them? I don't think the latch lines up either.
