You might have been lucky if you could re-use all the parts you had and they work without modification but from experience that is rarely the case and parts get left out or modified (i.e. filed to fit).

As an example, I needed to move a bus at the weekend, I had no idea which keys I needed so grabbed 3 sets, all worked the cab doors (so basically anything would open the doors) but only the correct one operated the ignition. This wasn't my bus, just another old VW

All you need is a decent amount of old locks to break up for spares and then select the best condition parts and re-build. I also suggest you build off a new code cut key

sourcing old locks seems to be an issue, haven't found any cheap
