Correct. Having had the need for a replacement recently, I got as far as getting the correct P/N and type BUT still needed the letter that was on the original key. The dealer did have keys to identify the correct one and if you can get that info, they can be obtained from ebay if you don't want to buy from the dealer. Stupidly, it was cheaper to order a new set rather than get the correct key!
