Default Replacing aftermarket power locks, etc., with stock

I have a 4-door '99 SE. It did not come with power windows, locks, etc. The previous owner installed aftermarket switches and housings on the door panel. By the time I bought it, the switches were unreliable and the passenger side switch was physically popping out of the armrest where it had been jerry-rigged.

So I decide to replace the door panels and switches. The entire internet tells me this should be a plug & play, no-brainer type swap.

Unfortunately, I now realize that previous owner removed the stock harness plugs to make the aftermarket switches work. In short, the modified harness plugs do not fit the new "stock" replacement parts. Half of them are not a "plug" at all, but just retrofitted 22-16 terminal spades.

Does anyone know where I can find harness parts for front driver and passenger side doors? Alternately, does anyone know what size the terminal spades should be on this type of standard replacement? The two hardware stores I tried this afternoon did not have small enough spades. The aftermarket switch I removed had larger connectors.

Finally, is there an easy-to-read diagram of how to wire the harness to the modules in general. Basically, I am looking for "red goes here, blue goes here, violet goes here," etc.

I will greatly appreciate any help. At the moment, I only have the passenger door torn apart. My apologies for any terminology I've mangled.
