Try Ed Olson at partsguyed.com (site sponsor) he should be able to get you the part number and a fair price on the part.

not only does the lock cylinder swap over, but so do all the internal linkage rods and clasp assembly parts..

the handle is pretty much the only peice that is required, and thats only because its outer shape is different.
