Are all Vanagon keys the same? I thought I had original keys for my 83.5
Westy, but they are not padded--they are an all metal key with the head being
a kind of combination of a triangel which is ovaled out and has the VW
circular insignia on the head. And the key says "WTO" where the head meets
the key shaft. Does anyone know if the padded key will work in the 83.5 Bus?

TIA
