All makes sense to me, I think you are wrong about not being able to order the correct lock cylinder though. Often a "generic" cylinder is installed because some dealers will stock a generic so you can walk out immediately with the parts you need. The lock dept is very quick about providing the correct part, usually overnight, depending on when the dealer would order during the day.
