Second.. I changed my lock cylinder (new key) passenger side door took another key and apparently nobody has the spare key to the new drivers door, it possible to get the doors keyed to the new key I have for the ignition?

You can have a mobile locksmith come and have the doors keyed to the ignition , they can order or may have in stock, the cylinders to match the ignition. If the ignition is the original, then you can call with the vin number and that would make it that much easier on everyone. If the ignition has been replaced, you would need to find a serial number on the ignition cylinder, identification number what ever its called, then they can get the matching parts. Im going through a similar challenge with an acura i bought, its a chipped key though, the ignition was changed so the door key doesn't match ignition. He explained to me the basics of our problems.

The guy at the junk yard said their not interchancgable. Thanks for any help.

so ive been reading up on the doors and glass for the f150. 92 through 96 are all interchangeable. I saw one thing that said, as long as the trucks are both the same style transmission. Oh, check the window to see if they are power or manual, the door panels are slightly different.
