Thanks to the post link d below I realized it was the electrical connection within my door latch that caused the problem of lights and radio not turning off when driver door was opened...

(The link is a repair for 2004 body style latch).

I simply decided to replace the entire latch with this...

Good job bud, I had to do 3 of mine so far. Only one left is the pass side front. When my driver's side front went bad it keep setting off the damn alarm.

How painful was it to get the latch alignment set up so it closed and reopened okay?

There is no adjustment when mounting those latch assemblies, they only bolt into one position. Only thing adjustable is the door strikers on the jambs. None of the 3 I replaced needed any addjustment.
