The 92-01 newer factory keys can be made to fit, but it takes some work as the newer keys are slightly thicker and considerably longer.

Aftermarket keys should be fine however, since they are not as thick as the factory keys.

yes, but... again the key is slightly thick. This may be an issue if the present locks are not worn much.

I have posted instructions in the past on this forum on how to do it. Doing a search it popped right up:
