My Truck's door lock

Recently was mending my truck because the door lock wasn’t working properly.

Luckily was possible to remove the white plastic part from the new lock cylinder,

The white plastic part is shown as number 21970 on a drawing which I found on
 ( web site ) (Can't find it again!  If I do, will update).




Thinking that perhaps the 1994 Mustang lock cylinder would fit, the Mustang one uses the plastic/metal clip shown in the picture, and the plastic/metal clip is available at the parts store.
