Welcome!
Let's get started on the overheating issue..

Welcome! I had the same issues on my 95. New radiator, water pump and fan and I'm better now. With 216k any of those three are the likely culprits. Avoid aluminum radiator replacements, loads of threads about problems. Also consider either a hood vent or hinge block. I use rockstar blocks and it runs cooler.

Oh yeah, you can get the power window lock modules all over eBay, 25-40 bucks. I bought a complete set of door panels that had the lock modules included to fix mine up a bit.

Shouldn't be a hard one when you get the good ideas here. How much did you paid for it?
