Any barrel from a MK5 Transit will fit. Just bear in mind that it will be a different key :wink:

Can you not make any barrel accept any key ? i thought each key just required the barrel to be the same number because they can be changed cant they.

Read ignition key stuck thread people in question may well alter other locks to suit the key you have.
