Pull the passenger door lock out and see if it has a code number stamped into it. It would look something like this.

If there is a code on it I can cut a key from that. The chances of saving the cover are pretty slim.....

I'll pull that and see. Would the driver side and rear tailgate have one too?

They might. Here is a thread I posted about the code location on a tailgate lock.

So I pulled all 3 locks. No numbers or anything. Kind of frustrating because I would like to keep the body color locks. I wouldn't mind changing to black locks if I have to...

The locks would have to be dissembled to re-key them and that destroys the cap.

I still have this set of black face locks.

That'll work. Is it possible to have the rear tailgate lock rekeyed to the new ones without destroying the cap?

As long as the key from the new lock set will slide into the tailgate lock it can be keyed to the new key and re-use the existing cap.
