Door locks

So I just got 1985 FB and its does not have door locks that match the ignition after looking on craigslist in my area of Idaho and ebay I got to think would the door locks off of a mazda B2200 (truck) work. I see a lot of people refer to parts that can be used for both so I was wondering if the locks would work too.... Or maybe you live around Coeur d Alene idaho and have an extra set =)

The other thing you could look into is having a local locksmith recode the set that is in your car. I have done several this way after we have rebuilt them and it has always given me great results the cost is less than new and the locks are all tight and keyed alike
