Default Center Console Replacement

I bought a replacement center console for my 2000, however it came locked. Is there a way to match my key to the lock or can I have my old lock installed in the new center console? Thanks.

Changing the lock is simple, it is only held in with a spring clip. If I remember correctly you can pull spring clip out from the underside of the console.

Thanks. Any idea how many hours labor it will take to replace the center console?
