Default Is a saph cossie boot lock the same as mk4 escort/mk2 Orion?

Desperately been looking for a boot lock for my saph (Must have key!!!!!) But can’t seem to find one anywhere, I’ve seen a couple of Orion & Escort ones advertised online that look the same, does anyone know for sure?? It’s the push in type I’m after I think 🤔

I am pretty sure they are.

I thought yours was 4x4, thus would not have such a lock?

an old school lock place should be able to repair the lock to work on your original key

Thanks for the replies, it’s for my 2wd not the one in the pic, sorry should’ve said.
If anyone can find the Finis code that would help, I’ve seen a few similar locks but none listed as Sierra, out of all the bits I’ve had to buy this seems to be the most difficult to find.

Cheers, I bought a new Mk2 Orion/Mk4 escort one off eBay, I think it may be the same, it’s pretty odd that bootlocks are quite hard to find, every other lock seems readily available.
