Certainly is. A pity I have NFI what number the door lock and boot lock are. [I carry 3 keys for my car].  I might have to drive to Mini King to find out! [edit] My door lock and boot keys are recuts so I've no idea what the numbers are. But they are not the same. |

With old lock barrels you can often just use a similar key, especially if they're worn. I can use my key from our '86 hilux on my sister's '92 camry. |

As drjbeam implied, you can swap the pins over from other barrels to make it fit the key you have, if you have enough to pick from. I did that with my boot lock after changing the door locks to Solex. Wish I could've put a Solex on the boot too.

To show where the code numbers are stamped... Earlier ignition switch...  Later ignition switch...  Note the five pins in these genuine locks.
