Xantia lock compatibility

[elma]

As from today I have to walk around the car to lock it. The boot locks never worked either so it's time to fix it before the last one goes and I'm locked out.

Are the boot lock barrels interchangeable between Xantia hatchback and estates? Both cars are mk1.

Also the ignition barrel on red is worn but greens isn't. Is it possible to make a good one using the wiring bits from green and the key bit from red or is that a silly idea?

Have I any hope of fixing the ones that have failed. The boot one spins but has no effect and the drivers door one worked notchily, despite oil, until today and now does not budge.

I had some barrels rebuilt at a local locksmith for around £10/15 each to as good as new condition , even if they come from different cars they can be matched .

That's a fantastic idea Mark. I shall have a go at the drivers door lock myself. Should I fail I'll take the boot lock and a spare door one to a locksmith.
