I've never seen them for the T-Handle. Brothers is the only one that I know of that sells tht t-handle, so you might give them a call and see if they can key it a s a set. If you already have locks on the doors and hatch, you may be able to have a lock smith rekey them all the same.

The brothers handles I think are chromed garage door/campertop handles so the locks are totally different. I had a good working hatch handle that I had purchased with no key. I took it to a locksmith to have him change the tumblers to match my door and ignition. He told me not an easy thing to do because of the way the lock is contained in the handle etc. Sometime I will take it to another for a second opinion

Gonna need some work on my rear hatch, it's not too bad, but some work needed. Very interested in this topic, as already have the matching set of lock and keys for all but the hatch, which is like I said, decent, but unlockable so far.Double wall top by the way, like it matters with the hatch, right!

I know that, on my 78, the key was needed to rotate the cylinder to remove the lock from the housing. Then the cylinder be opened and rekeyed. I had to drill my old cylinder to get it out, so no option to re-key at that point.

Seemed the same for the oem t handle on the 72, so to home depot and garage handle route I went. I do not mind the extra key, and 9 bucks is the right price.
