Question 500SL 1985 Ignition problems

My just purchased 1985 500SL didn't come with keys, so I ordered new ones from the local dealer. It turns out that the ignition tumbler had been changed and the key doesn't work. MB is telling me the ignition tumbler for that car has been discontinued and no parts are available. Can anyone help me with a solution to get keys to my car?
