Have you tried Atlantic Imported in NH? They might still be able to get
the "OEM" door handles, who knows?

The individual things in the tumbler are also different from OE which means you can not re-key the new lock to match your old key. I returned the last one they sold me and repaired the broken door handle (very careful slow work with a TIG welder).
