'79 wagon lower trim fix

yesterday the lower trim (rubber 'n chrome) strip fell off my driver's side door. the front end of the trim piece seems to have a little clip that is rusty but intact, but the rear end of the trim piece just has a rusty hole on its back side. i popped the little cover off the rear bottom of the passenger side door to see what it *should* look like and there is a little nut that seems to connect to a small threaded pin that is attached to the trim piece. obviously, that threaded pin has rusted away from my passenger-side trim piece. do you sell a replacement part for this, or do i need to A) buy a new (or used) whole piece of trim or B) jerry-rig something?

instructions for installing new door adjustment switch on '82 300SD

I ordered this kit from Mercedes Source. You have to solder in the wires into this kit for a new electrical switch for the drivers power seat adjustment. But it didn't come with instructions. I have done soldering before but I would like a few tips on how to do this right the first time without messing anything up. For one thing, there is no crimping involved right? Aside from a soldering iron, I shouldn't need any special tools right?
