body lock cylinder question

i only have the ignition key for my 84 z28. as this is a problem, i would like to replace the lock cylinders so i can lock the car up when i go somewhere.

since i work at napa, i'm looking at replacing the locks with the parts below....

my question is..... does the lock for the hatch use the same cylinder as the doors? if not, where can i get a replacement? i don't want to pay to have the car re-keyed if i don't have to.

thanks in advance.

They are different, but you should be able to have a locksmith change the guts of your existing hatch lock cylinder to accept your 'new' door keys; don't forget about the locking compartment in the hatch...

You can get a complete kit from classic industries for about $60 including the key for the storage compartment in the hatch.
