Its the same but the cable attaching to the unit is off different length. I'm not sure if the cable can be removed from the lock unit easily or not though.
Update:I have just finished replacing the door latch on a 3 door, using a 5 door latch and it works perfectly...the only issue was the length of the cable which is simple enough to change.
Sorry for the late reply, but I just kind of wiggled a flat screwdriver in the gaps and pulled and it came out ( white plastic bit and all), then just pushed the longer cable back in.
