I want to re-key the my glove box lock i.e. get it apart and swop the tumblers.

Has anyone done this ever? I can't see how to get the lock barrel apart.

Thanks,
Chris

Not sure if this helps as I cannot remember how it all works

Thanks for the reply jb.

Alas, mine is a slightly earlier lock but I think I've stumbled across the answer.

I found the following really useful 914 site where the author discusses re-keying all the locks on the car. It appears that you have to insert the key to remove the tumbler, which makes sense now I think about it. Problem is I don't have the key - catch 22!

Anyone with a bag full of keys for me to try, or a crafty idea?

Cheers,

any half decent locksmith should be able to knock you up a key. Had a main key done recently using the ignition barrel for £30.

I have a box of of 50 or so keys, but mostly vw, as I broke them for a while. Ive got 4 x 911's maybe one will fit, post me your lock if you fancy and i'll have a go. It will be pot luck. L
